How do you know about Cameron's Smash Repairs? Have you seen their work?
I'm guessing they must do a top job?
Your Dents don't have paint chipped do they? Any idea how much to fix up a couple with paint chipped off? (Will just give them a call if you don't know )
Was the quote for fixing up the holes in your boot & Respraying cheaper than other places?

Hey mate... Yeh the $300 was quite cheap... most were around $400-450..
I found them through a reccomendation from another place... and yeh, top notch work...
Havent seen their work, but im running out of time...
My dents have no paint missing... to fix a dent would be the same price as mine, however you have to respray the whole panel...
If you're planning a respray in the future just get the dint fixed and wait till later to get everything painted in one go... ONe panel will be at least the $300 mark..
If you need good deal on photography, let me know.
Yeah, I wish my dents were only dents ... they've chipped the paint off on all of them... :S
I am getting my front bumper replaced with a new stock bumper (will try to wear them down fitting a bodykit, but I don't like my chances) & resprayed cause the repair shop did a dodgy last time ... not gonna cost me anything, but I will have to get it done after Autosalon cause there's no telling how long they will keep my car... and theres so much goin on on the weekends leading up to AS.
As for the paint chips, yeah .. I am just gonna wait until my car is covered with them... then get a full respray.. Before I get a respray done I want to have a go at prepping & painting them myself... (And have a go at removing the dents) not the whole panel, just the area they're in. If I screw it up, then I will take it in to be done by the pro's.
the stone chips on my front bar made me cry....then i used colour turtle wax... & now i dont cry trust me you fill in the chip & buff it up.. lol u would never know it was there quick cheap& easy solution... i have white turtle wax here to
*rubs hand together and gets ready to scab grab at parts again*
remember that bracket u left at mine and i got will to give it back to you? well.... my car doesnt have them.....
if u dont need them, can i give u a few bucks for them?

I know this really awesome dude that had that exact bar on his blue FTO..... ooops that was me. Good luck on driveways Mine was pretty busted up in the end and I was ultra careful.
yeh... well my intercooler hangs fairly low... and with 18"s it sits a little higher...
but yeh... its not a daily driver so it should be okay...
and yeh i loved yours... i was so jealous... lol
and yang, if you want the front bar, you can have it for $100...
semi-modified... lol.. if you finished what i started with some bog and sanding, it'd look the goods... and be Plaastic (= heaps better than fibreglass)
