When is repair an option?
Scuffs and scratches on a bumper that otherwise fits properly are often worth repairing. Some plastic dents and cracks can also be repaired. We’ll look at the whole bumper, including the shape and mounts, before recommending the work.
When might it need replacing?
Missing plastic, badly broken mounts or a bumper that’s lost its shape can make replacement more practical. Earlier repairs that keep failing also need a closer look. Painting over the damage won’t fix poor fit or broken attachments.
What does replacement involve?
A replacement bumper may need preparation, painting, fitting and transfer of trims or sensors. Genuine, aftermarket and used parts can differ in fit and condition. Check the total job cost and confirm the part before buying it for a booking.
What about sensors and cameras?
Show the whole bumper in your photos, including sensors and cameras near the damage. Depending on the vehicle and work, separate checks or calibration may be needed. A cosmetic repair doesn’t confirm that equipment behind the bumper is undamaged.
Not sure whether to repair or replace it?
You don’t need to choose before contacting us. Send close-up and wider photos, and mention anything loose or out of alignment. We’ll talk through the options and explain if an inspection is needed.
