Please help my Nissan Sunny regain its beauty!

[Nsunny]

I've had always been damn poor on my head in parking. Just now I did that becuase there was no other parking lot and the last one was next to a wall. It was very tight and I didn't tink much, just try to to head in parking. Without any luck, this is what happened to my sunny..

 

 

I'm going to spray paint this front bumper. How much does it cost? Which is the reccomended place to do it so that it looks almost flawless?

 

I heard from my friend they normally spray half the bumper one, and a spray shop call Foolip at around Kranji is good.. Any comments? Thanks..

[Eazterence]

Wah piang.. If I kena I sure cry.. Champiagn colour eh? Same as my Sunny.. I tink it cost around S$50 ba? Just a small portion.. =)

[Nutty]

Hmm.. quite serious eh? Maybe respraying is not enough.

Hmm.. they offer respraying mah.

 

So I just recommend lor.

[Nutty]

Anyway... from the photo, it seems like there's dent.

 

Maybe my eyes playing tricks on me?

[Eazterence]

Think dun have ba? The photo's problem.. Got dent then Nsunny cry even louder le.. =X

[Nsunny]

There's not a dent there. :) Just chipped off paint.. WIll respraying have a perfect flawless bumper already?

[Nutty]

Then Nsunny needs to tell us what's the extent of the damage.

 

Quoted from Nsunny:

 

Which is the reccomended place to do it so that it looks almost flawless?

 

 

If he wants flawless, then partial respraying is not an option.

Hahaha.. Nutty just answered your question.. =) Then that sure costs alot.. Zzz.. Feel sad for you, Nsunny..

[Nutty]

Hmm.. I'm not too sure about Sunny's bumper.

 

Seems like two different portions are chipped off.

 

Do they reside in the same piece of bumper?

[Nutty]

Anyway.. respraying of the whole bumper should be around $120 to $150 bah...

No Offence, but what makes you so sure you will not hit your bumper again?

 

Just use touch up paint, costs you less than S$10. And you can use back the paint if you get chips on your bumper elsewhere.

 

I used to have the same mentality as you. Little bit scratch here or there, must repair or respray. Spent so much money.

 

Now I just can't be bothered, just leave it as it is. The parking lots in S'pore are so narrow, sure to get dings and dents or scratches on bumper when parking.... matter of time.

I think TC provided a bottle of paint the same colour as your car.

You can use it to blotch up the area.

Cheapest alternative. + VIT4WD mentality

 

My Nissan Sunny (beige too) also kena the side door when turning down the slopes in the darn narrow carpark at Bukit Merah (the one beside the bus terminal). Used the paint to make it less obvious.

[Chiqinhan]

yeah tat mscp next to the interchange i think is the narrowest in singapore. really need precision turnin upslope. tats y i always how those big merc, bmw, mpv n suv go up or down.

[Eazterence]

Haha.. Anyway, where to get the paint colour same as your ride? I searched my car but dun hab.. Lolz.. I got a few very minor scratch here and there cuz of debris hitting my car while travelling.. =(

[Kiatmobile]

I think at least about $150...

 

I had mine the same when i did a knock on someone's car and that i went to a workshop introduced by my mechanic.

 

I also have the same thought like you that it merely cost $50.00.

But NO!

It cost me $150. Painter says cannot spray just that portion as the paint may not be look alike.

So, no choice...

The car is actually my dad's. But damage caused by me.

When we got the car last Dec, it was in the front compartment (first passenger). Maybe you can check with your SE if he/she passed one to you. If not, ask from them? Don't think it will cost much to them, maybe need to go down and get.
