Thumbs down Need some help with damage

Hey Guys!

I am new here, been lurking around for a while.

I hurt my car yesterday in a bizarre accident (it was parked in the garage, my other car hit the garage door bumping my civic forward into a dog kennel). Both bumpers are damaged. The front bumper has a dent and the paint looks cracked where it bent in. The back bumper has an actual crack (1.5 inches) in the bumper and some of the bumper is ripped, as well as paint damage (this is from the metal joint on the garage door).

Anyways I am looking for some advice on where to have this damaged repaired for a reasonable price (I am in Calgary)

Here are the pics

Re: Need some help with damage

the front bumper looks like it will pop back out, but the paint might not look the same. just try it and see. the rear youre gonna need a new bumper since its cracked.

Re: Need some help with damage

I can't really help you but I'll say get a whack of quotes from different shops and pick one that is reputable with the best price. That's crazy, you must have hit that door hard or the garage is a tight fit. Sorry to hear it.

Re: Need some help with damage

sorry to hear about your story bro.. but there's really no one can help you with that one here.. so i suggest you go to any bodyshop and get a quote (like tbohara say). i know shop charges you a leg lol so if you know anyone who you think can do it then get it fix from him/her

Good luck......

It's okay, I did it a bunch of times. In fact I think I bumped a 6 year old thread as my first post lol.

It's a great forum, and you obviously have a lot of mechanical knowledge. We need more people like you

Re: Need some help with damage

keep going and someone will hit the button
On a separate note, how do you like this one being your introductions thread?
(Yup, we do have a twisted sense of humour, don't get scared )

Btw.. Just my opinion, the introduction thread should be on the top where new members can see it right away.. Kinda like mine lol

Cos if I have not missed this I could've made one already!

Just my idea anyway lol
