    This actually isn’t for the truck! My gf had someone back into her Subaru while parked (of course they hit it and left :frusty:) and it cracked the bumper a bit. Thing is it’s a lease so gonna have to get it fixed. It’s enough for it to need some bondo but it’s a pearl white so it’ll have to be repainted or the paint won’t match up again. (Had that issue with my last vehicle)


    Anyone know a good shop or know of someone that won’t charge me an arm and a leg?

    Thanks in advance :hattip:

    Damn I’m in OC. I know a dude in Santa Ana that is cheaper than anyone I’ve come across and he does solid work. But that’ll be kinda far for you
