Title: bumper smooth prices?
Post by: Mikester on 20 January 2009, 16:09

How much would be the going rate for a body shop to smooth a front bumper and spray it? £200? bit less, bit more?

Cheers

Mike

Ditto, do you mean just to get shot of the textured finish, or to reshape the bumper, fill holes and get shot of the texture etc..

I have thought about getting this done but it puts me off because wont the wheel arches and side skirts door trims look odd they must be a nightmare to smooth unless you take all them off

Have a look at the pics of my car mate, there are side trims that don't join with the arches and are colour coded.
