if i were you id check out FIT in WA. they have some of the best products i have ever seen
for the super 6.
i spent over 5k through them over 18 months and it got a tad scary.

Pretty minimal pretty badly scratched and a large dint on both the rear panel and the bumper. Plus the chrome strip has been damaged which will need to be replaced. took a quote today of $600.... but ya know not paying for it so not worried about price. just that a good job is done.
