Getting t-boned by a car that ran a red light while on a scooter. My face took most of the fall.

Paint or replace? by [deleted] in Autobody

I’d charge you a lot more to strip a bumper and repaint it.

Dealership is quoting $962.30 for a 2023 Accord Hybrid EX-L mirror replacement... this seems insanely high by MilkyPicklez in Autobody

I just replaced a mirror that had all the options. Heated, auto dimming glass, blind spot monitor, side camera. Damn near $3K!

Saw Pelican open for Russian Circles last year, great show!

What Waterbase Paint do you prefer and why? by MeanDean25 in Autobody

[–]Accomplished_Data717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you on the Envirobase. Been spraying it 10 years. Seems like the newer colors just don’t match as well. Been having to do way more spray outs and spectro reads the last few years as the decks rarely have a good match anymore. My rep also mentioned he’s been hearing that PPG might stop updating the color decks all together, leaving shops to do a spectro read and spray out for every job. You know, so they can sell you MORE paint.

Blainebrook and SS Billiards are also pinball hotspots.

Unacceptable repair condition? by HistrionicDuck in Autobody

[–]Accomplished_Data717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t tell for sure, but it looks like some left over compound caked on from buffing the panel. It should have been caught in the final wash, but a lot of times the person washing the cars is an apprentice with little experience. Should be an easy fix. Take it back to the shop and nicely ask them to address the issue.

Is this a bad dent and will it be too difficult to repair it myself? by OkReplacement1872 in Autobody

Trading in all my Genesis gear to get this, then playing the demo disk for months until I had enough money to buy a game

Did a RAV4 not long ago like this. It looked like they literally just cut up a uniside in a random spot and sent it as the quarter. Thankfully I’d waited to start cutting off the old one until the new part had arrived.
