Title: hit car
Post by: forfor on February 07, 2015, 07:50:13 PM

hello

while trying to park, I hit my car a bit at the side

where can I have it fixed? cheapest way?

I don't even know how these garages are called, how to search for them

I live in Basildon

or if you can suggest me please a quick fix?

thanks!

the damage is biggish

there is dent just above the wheel and color has been peeled off

he will need to straighten it and paint it!

any idea how much it will cost?

It's virtually impossible to say how much it'll be without knowing the full extent of the damage and who will be repairing it. Sorry.

I am not sure that you can see that it's dented and the color has been peeled off

Ouch - and I'd say that's been repaired before as it looks like filler
