Overview

What This Service Actually Covers

The premium difference is not just colour matching. It is proper prep, proper blending, and a repair process that makes cosmetic damage disappear without sending your car into a workshop for days.

Bumper bars cop more than any other panel — reverse parking, car park pillars, the bollards at the servo. The good news is most bumper damage doesn't need a new bar; a repair is a fraction of the cost and you'd never know. I did a Toyota Prado in Greenvale where the whole rear bumper was scuffed and gouged from backing into a post — filled the gouges, reshaped it, colour-matched and cleared it, back to factory.

A ute in Caroline Springs had gouges so deep the bumper corner needed filler before paint — still repaired, no new part. I repair plastic and painted bumper bars alike, and I do it in your driveway so the car stays on the road. Send a photo of the damage and I'll quote it back to you.

Straight up

When bumper repair isn't the right fix

I'd rather tell you honestly than take a job I can't do properly. Send me a photo and if it's one of these, I'll say so and point you to the right trade:

  • The bumper is shattered or cracked through its mounts — that is a replacement, not a repair
  • Parking sensors or a camera in the bumper are damaged — those need replacing (I handle the paint side)
  • There is underlying crash or structural damage — that is smash-repair work

Everything else — the everyday cosmetic stuff — is exactly what I do. Not sure which yours is? Send a photo and I'll give you a straight answer.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does bumper repair cost in Melbourne?
A scratched bumper typically runs $400 to $450 — deep gouges that need filler land at the top of that range, and damage running onto a guard takes it to about $650. Still a fraction of what a new bumper costs supplied, painted and fitted. Send a photo for a free quote.
Can you repair plastic bumper bars?
Yes — plastic bumper bars are most of what we repair. Scuffs, scratches and gouges are sanded back, filled where they're deep, then primed, colour-matched against your panel and cleared. Scratched black plastic trim and mouldings on the bar can usually be repaired and repainted too, instead of buying a new part.
Can you repair cracked bumpers?
Yes, we can repair most bumper cracks using specialized plastic welding and reinforcement techniques, restoring structural integrity.
How long does bumper repair take?
Most bumper repairs are completed within 3-5 hours, depending on the extent of the damage.
Where can you perform the mobile repair?
We need a private garage or private driveway with access to power. We cannot work in apartment car parks, public places, roadside, or shared car parks. Note: We do not repair bonnets (hoods) or roofs.
