Has anyone used this?

If so - What was the quality like, and do you think it was worth it for the price?

Cheers

i personally havnt used them, we allways use the touch up guys... sure they occasionally use boog(who doesnt) but their finnish on plastic bumpers is second to none

Ok thanks for that, I hadn't heard of them before....

What work have you had them do? How much did it cost?

This quote from the "Franchise Opportunites" page makes me a little nervous...

i have witnessed dozens of repairs done by them(i used to run a yard and work for a big importer)
i was never EVER dissatisfied by their work...

depends on what the work is, do you have pix of the damage?

Actually, can anyone recommend a bumper repairer in the Wellington area? my mate cracked his bumper on our driveway fence (it's a bitch of a turn!), resulting in an 6" u-shaped crack and a thin missing piece about two inches long... photos to follow once I get my A into G and get an uphosting site sorted for photos!

Thanks everyone!

sorry to hijack the thread, never know when to start a new one or keep to the one I posted in- meh!

My mate took his car to the mechanic- apparently ford mondeo bumpers are made of a brittle plastic, so can't be plastic welded- bugger! Looking at a new or second hand one...

Ive found them to be a little weaker than some, but have repaired with fibreglass before with good results.
