Hi All,

I recently had a minor accident in my car and had to leave my car in the body shop for 2 weeks. The damage was mostly on the front bumper and the work is almost complete now. The repair technician called me and asked if iam interested in fixing the rear bumper too. I had some scratches on the rear bumper before.
He said he's not going to replace the bumper but fix it and re-paint it. He's charging me 200$, Can someone please tell me is it good to replace the bumper or the price being asked is reasonable.

Also what does he mean by fixing the bumper?

Thanks in Advance.

 

Ask HIM what he means. Usually if there's deep gouges (but not actually torn) he can fill with some kind of plastic stuff similar to what the bumper-skin is made from. Sometimes even torn bumper skins can be welded together.

Then paint it. Maybe he's just talking about painting & blending into surrounding body?
