Title: Help/Advise - Front bumper damaged
Post by: hadrian on October 11, 2008, 01:51:10 PM: Hi bros,

My front bumper is damaged, looks like need to replace the whole front bumper. Anyone know how much TC charge for replacing the front bumper + paintworks?

or anyone can replace me a external workshop that can do a reliable work.

thks in advance.

If not so serious, can knock back. Cheaper.

Post by: burnolise on October 13, 2008, 08:38:47 AM: A few weeks ago, my dad ramp my car onto curb and had some small dent at the bottom of the front bumper....went to TC to check out the price...quote me $300+ in total...in the end...i decided to live with the dent....

Think if u go to outside maybe cheaper....even my TC SE also tell me dun do it at TC...

One more thing, I think insurance also can't claim...if I am not wrong...most of our insurrance is 500-600 access....so I think the repair wun exceed this amt....
