Bumper repairs - Good or nasty?

[Pete C]

Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone has used any of the advertised bumper repair people, eg. touch-up guys, that come out and fix your bumper, instead taking your car to the local panel beaters? And if so, how good of a job did they do? I'm sure a few of you would have a few annoying scratches that you've wanted to get rid of and have wondered about having it fixed in this way... Maybe I should stick to the panel beaters? I don't know!

touch up guys do ok jobs but they tend to mis match colour so if your up close and looking for it you will notice it

Yeah, I guess you couldn't expect a perfect job with the type of repair they are attempting, but I guess it could be too crap since there's so many of them floating around. I couldn't see them getting a perfect match with metallic or pearl paints really, and if it was dodgy I woudn't be happy... Anoyone else with experiences with bumper touch-ups?
