Need A Good Minor Fix/Body Shop

[RTShadow]

Pretty pissed off right now. I had a moving blanket wrapped around the rear strut bar I purchased some time ago, of course not installed yet, and as I pulled the blanket off, the strut bar got caught up in it and spun... even though I made a point of standing between it and my car it got past me and carved a lovely scratch into my bumper... bringing about a whole schlew of F bombs.

Tried the scratch remover, that was a no go, it's just a little too deep. The scratch is probably about an inch and a half long, it isn't all that deep at all, but it is deep enough that I can't buff it out on my own without damaging the surrounding area.

It is one of those things that most people probably wouldn't notice but I'm a perfectionist about my car so I'm pretty pissed off about it.

Anyone know of a reliable body shop that won't bend me over the proverbial couch?

I'm going to try to buff that Forking scratch out on my own first, if that doesn't work I'll take it into a collision place.

my buddy also knows the owner of dent crafters. i could talk to him also. he painted my moms front bumper and blended it right for 125 pretty cheap. he does good work.

Well, I did some work on it today. I got out an old camo stick from my infantry days, and filled in the scratches so I could see them...





Then I used 2000 grit sandpaper and wet sanded the area for awhile, then used liquid scratch remover to smooth the area. It looks a little bit better but there is one line that won't come out. I still may have to get some professional work done on it.

[bluesrt]
