Minor collision repair on ML 500

This Mercedes was backed into and the damaged was behind the bumper as well as the bumper and rear body panel. We have to straighten the panel and refinish the paint and repair the bumper. We will PDR most of the damage, this way we use less filler and save money for the customer.

We’ll have to take the bumper off to access the damage behind it and to ensure proper paint quality. To save money (at customers request) we will only refinish the corner of the bumper where the damage is located. By not painting the entire bumper we save the customer (who is paying without insurance) around $150. We still offer him a lifetime warranty on the paint and when we’re done there will be no evidence of a blend. I’ll update the pictures later when we’re done.

This will be a 2 1/2 day job.
