    Takes the same effort and cost to spray a panel correctly versus badly. In fact, cheaper for everyone if they do it right the first time.
    I thought that would be the case - but all of the above areas you mentioned in a previous post to scrutinise before them handing the keys over I need to have readdressed and some.

    Been there, done that

    Daughters car was the latest(but have decided not to get it remedied by the repairer). Although a better job than the one the other company did on my R.

    I'll follow up with how things turn out after I have them repaired and then cast my judgement on the experience.

    Just following up have had the car back for about 3-4 weeks now - the issues that I had with their work was remedied. Panel gaps and the bumper alignment were fixed and the paint build up and contaminants (bugs/dirt) in the paint was also rectified. They didn't really seem to want to have anything to do with me once they had taken it a second time - If they did it right the first time I wouldn't have needed to go back!

    Similar story to others posting in this thread though, there are swirl marks from them washing it prior to picking it up. Like Brimway - I won't really find out the scope until I have Kim from Detail Evolution do his magic in just over a weeks time.

    I'm sure you won't be disappointed with Kim's work.

    Just a few snaps of Kim's work from yesterday - extremely impressed.

    Just a quick bump to this thread, anyone got any recommendations on places to get bumper resprays done? It'd be off car, and the only thing i'm after is a respray (so strip old paint back, sand, prep, paint)....

    Anywhere else that anyone recommends?
