A friend had a little accident with another car. One shop told the owner of the car that the whole bumper needed to be replaced (BS). Anyone know of a good shop in the Peninsula/SF area that can take care of this for a fair price and in a timely manner?

Thanks BAIC!

 

Thats a simple job IMO. Detail Addict can handle it? Is it a punctured hole? or a gouge?

 

just like kyle said, ask Leo (detailaddict) first. if not, there is Garage Inc in Burlingame or United Auto Body in SF

 

Thanks guys,

Kyle = I never saw the car, so I'm not sure if it's punctured/gouged.

 

Where exactly is that scratch? its hard to tell from the pic. Hey Gus photoshoot one of these days in pacifica somewhere?

 

Joe, I wanna say in the rear bumper!

Def. bro, let's hook up a photoshoot some time! I don't have a real camera though. Hopefully you do!

 

Talk to Ballz. I think he might be able to fix it without replacing the whole bumper.

 

Sunny Auto Body in S.F. Talk to Denny, tell him "Ryan with the WRX" sent you and he'll hook it up for you. They're a direct repair facility for lots of insurance companies, so you know that their work is top quality.

Oh, and sorry to counter so steezy's recommendation for United A/B in S.F., but those guys are really shady and always do crap like swap parts, skimp on promised work, and whatnot. Be careful if you do go with them. Leonid and George are slippery guys.

 

Replace the bumper, mmm no! Good luck with that

I too say send a PM to Ballz. If it is a insureance thing then I say go to Yeaman Auto Body. It is in Palo Alto but they are one of the few Diamond certified shops and do awesome work. Most likely you will see a couple Subies there and a few Porsche Club cars there too.

 

Nikon d80 .... should get some decent pics !

 

my car is currently there getting worked on..
shops over in portrero hill.

 

wtf your car is finally getting repaired

 

yup.. and i actually got enough money for some methanol now. i'm just debating if i want a new mac laptop or a smc kit.

 

insurance? hahah nice now you can visit me in the 707 i'll be down in the penninsula this weekened picking up my 3rd set of wheels for the bimmer i'll give you a call to see if you wanna kick it. oh and hi gus! there are a lot of cheap body shops in san bruno near the railroad tracks but the damage on that bumper doesn't look bad at all. I say just use some touch up paint and your good to go!
