Steve Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 They will take the inner trim out and tap out out, then probably lightly sand it out and a quick blending spray job i would image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the looks of it, the scratch may be superficial (on the clear coat). Try buffing it out with some compound like scratch x. My brother swiped my car against a brick wall and it looked bad like that but i buffed it out and only a few marks remain, not noticeable until you get up close. If not ilv1004s smash repair is the guy to go to. I vouch for their work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d_porkypine Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 jeez, I wonder what they were going to do for $3000 unless the damage is worse than what it shows in the pic.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowen Yong Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 haha they are just quoting prices man..first the guy came out took a look and he said: mate you're looking at 3000 bucks repair as the rear door panel needs to be replaced and this and that...anyways i just went for a normal smash repairer approved by NRMA..its just as good!
