Good nw body shop?

Post by Dannyd » Tue May 10, 2011 2:00 pm

So for reasons best not gone into I managed to ground the front bumper. It has an almighty scrape on the corner and appears to have come off a bit by the drivers wheel arch. I'm thinking dealer will want to supply paint and fit new bumper (with fogs) but I'm sure in the right pair of hand a rub down respray and refit would see it right. Any suggestions in the northwest?
