Well my dumbass brother backed into my car in the driveway so i have some nice scratches and chips on the passenger side inbetween fog and headlight. So where is a good place to get this repaired? I guess this isnt’ so bad because i’ll get my shitty chipped up bumper repainted!  
heres some crappy pics right after it happened

it could have been so much worse so i cant complain that much, but its just depressing, oh well,

but anyways any reccomendations would be appreciated thanks i am just looking for a place that wont screw me over and that hopefully will have the shortest wait.

Doug’s Place Two… quality service, quick turn around but a bit more expensive (you pay for what you get).

FX designs did a good job for me… why dont u wait till we all get together and get the front bumpers painted? its still winter and u can still rear end someone on the ice. would be a shame to waste 500$ on paint then have to do it again in spring.

but yah try FX designs. cheapest and did good work. or theres EZ customs or w/e its called on parsons road by south commin. some asian guy runs it. he does a bunch of custom paint and stuff for ricers.  
he paying for it?

yah of course hes paying. and can we actually get a good deal as a group anywhere? i mean we’ve all talked about it but will it actually happen cause then i’d prob be game for that, even though my front bumper will look like shit for a while.

allthough his friend works at transform spoilers so he said he can do it cheap, but cheap usually means shitty so i guess i might as wait fora bit before i do it.

well when i got my gf front bumper painted, it wa brand new w/ no paint and it still took a day… they will need to sand ours, prime it, paint it, clear coat, and dry. so atleast 2 days id say. we could prob save alot of money and time by sanding it ourselves…

True. Also, it should be faster for black cars since you don’t have to color match it.

i got the 3M and its meh… i can see it upclose but in the pics i posted u would never see it.  
im 90% in for the bumper paint. i talked to my gf’s dad and he knows how to do this kind of shit. so he said he might be able to do it for me if i buy the paint and give a hand.

but yah ill call around and ask about group deals.
