What you need to insist they do is take the bumper off and spray it, not leave it on the car...... |

Good girl stick to your guns. Happened to me bout 5 years ago. Had my front bumper on my disco ( I know I was on the dark side) damaged. And when they brought it back on the lorry I never iet them take it off cause I could see paint work was crap. Lorry driver did not like it nor the insurance company. Took another 2 weeks before I got my car back but was worth it. It's what we pay our insurance for! Give them hell ! |

To be fair I micrometer may not be that much use, and if its on anything plastic, it wont work at all anyway. When I got into a dispute over my XF paintwork, I tested it with a paint guage and it was all over the place. Varied from 100 microns in places to over 250 in others. On the same panel you could get variances of 100 microns. Some of the most uneven thickness of paintwork Ive ever heard of.

It's all a case of 1970's techniques on modern day cars, all they had to do was drop the bumper off the motor, fix the damage spray it and plonk it back on, the downside of it all is that she's really |

I am going to be very calm and offer to listen to how this wll be rectified...Its times like this I wish I had a man to do this for me. Its one of the many drawbacks to being single. I know that might sound pathetic, but seriously some garages and people think oh single girl doesnt have a clue... So any bodies that are free this week.?? |

Foxy, you don't need a man to sort out problems like this, you are more than capable to sort things like this yourself |

I would get onto the insurance company to rectify it.
