Repair costs / SpotFix Journal

What affects scratch
and bumper repair cost?

Repair cost depends on how deep the damage is, how much needs painting and the condition of the existing finish. Here’s what affects your quote.

Ipswich + BrisbaneBy SpotFixUpdated 2 November 2026

How deep is the scratch?

A mark sitting on top of the paint may be paint transfer. A scratch through the colour needs a different repair. Polishing can improve some surface marks, but it won’t put missing paint back. Send a close-up in daylight so we can see what’s damaged.

How much of the bumper needs painting?

A repair to one corner is different from painting the whole bumper. When comparing quotes, check which area is included and whether the price covers preparation, painting and any removal or fitting. If the bumper needs replacing, ask whether the part is included too.

What condition is the existing paint in?

Peeling paint and earlier repairs can mean extra preparation. Metallic and pearl colours can also need more work to match and blend. Let us know about any previous paintwork you’re aware of; it helps us quote the job more accurately.

What should I send for a quote?

Send a close-up, a photo of the whole bumper and a wider shot of the car. Include the make, model, year and suburb. Mention loose corners, uneven gaps or peeling paint. For wheels, photograph each damaged wheel separately.

How do I get a price?

Use the photo quote form or text your photos to 0416 870 837. We’ll explain the work and let you know if we need to inspect the car before confirming a price. Enquiring is free and doesn’t commit you to a booking.
