smart repairs arent meant to be 100% we all know that. That said, I've had cars go into bodyshops before and come out with finishes that arent 100%. The bumper wasnt 100% before the incident. It had some chips and marks on the fang that are now gone, so its already better than it was previously , assuming the finish is good of course! If i think it looks crap in a few weeks time i'll get it re-sprayed, but based on the recommendations i'd had, i thought i'd try it first!
The damage was so minor it didnt seem worth the effort of the body shop, when such a localised repair can be done. I'm currently working on PXing it and my other car for a GT-R anyway, so it won't be too much of an issue if the deal comes off

PX on a GT-R... hope u offer it up to the Forum (Bing) for the PX price, as then u might be able to squeeze Nissan for that little bit more... all the best
yeah, ive decided the 2 car thing doesnt work for me, i'm better off having a single decent car. As for the repair, i am as sceptical as you lot seem to be about smart repairs. However he came recommended by a mate who is into his detailing and had some work done on his car about a year ago, and you just cant see it at all. if it looks decent i will leave it, if it doesnt, i will get it redone.... only time will tell...
Perhaps I should sneak in and buy this one too. Share the mileage across the pair of them. Winter car, summer car. Hmm...
