Rear Bumper Dented

[Scorpion]

The rear bumper had this dent in when I bought the truck.



Took it to the local body shop tonight and the price to remove, repair, spray and refit is only £60.00, which I thought was very reasonable.

I've used this guy before and he always does a great job.

thats a bargain - where is he in the newcastle area, would suit me as i'm always coming into n.shields on the ferry. i wouldnt mind a bit of touch up done on mine.

About 8 miles outside of Newcastle Gary. A place called Blaydon, home of the famous Blaydon Races (well famous up here in the North east anyway!)

You could do it yourself a lot cheaper.

No problem mate.

60 quid isnt too bad.. Have you tried a sucker on it first though? I know it's on a bend, but when someone reversed into the wing on my old BMW I managed to use one to pull most of it out. As it was pushed in it was flat enough to get a decent pull on it. Then the body shop just had to do some minor filler.
