    Paint repair

    Wife scratched our new Tiguan against concrete column in the garage. There are multiple scratches on the front side panel, right about headlight, some are very deep.

    Can I send it to the dealer to fix it up? Would the paint job as integrated as original? I'd really like it to be as shiny as before. So, is it better or is it possible to have the whole panel replaced?

    How much would the cost respectively be? I have comprehensive insurance, should I submit it to claim, or would it better just to pay it myself? Advise needed. Thanks.

    dont take it to a dealer. go directly to a panel beater and get some quotes for the repair. Doubtful they will replace panels unless they are quite badly damaged.

    Take it to the dealer, if your in Brisbane, the one at Newstead is really good for paintwork!
