Default Sydney Smash Repairer

Does anyone have any recommendations on smash repairers (preferably in the inner west area)? Cost is a consideration because I will not claim if it is not necessary.

I have had an incident which has caused a dent in the corner of the rear bumper. Can this be repaired or does the bumper have to be replaced? Does anyone know what something like this should cost or what my options are?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry to be repetitive, but:

PRESTIGE - PRESTIGE - PRESTIGE

Sure they are in Artarmon, but they are one of those finds I just can't stop recommending.

I had a similar repair done here in Melb.

The bumper was replaced and a few little bits a pieces. Was around $2k.
From memory, the cost of the replacement bumper alone was $780.

There is another one in Atarmon called NorthShore Classic.... He did a really good job on me BLACK prelude before.... ask for Avik and say that Nick told you to go and he will give you a good price...

I just had another opportunity to sample the fine work of Prestige and am very happy with the result. I had the right front guard, front bumper, and under spoiler replaced.

Generally Sydney drivers are bad. This is not mainly due to bad coordination, but aggressive, irresponsible driving.

I've had 2 accidents in the past 3 years, none my fault. First one was some dude who didn't bother to look in his blind spot, scraped my front right and did a hit n run. Police got involved and everything got settled in the end. Second was some dude speeding and rear ending me in his pissy toyota echo.

Warning to all sydney drivers. There is a new menace on the streets on Sydney. Astra drivers!
Those idiots think there cars is invincible or something. I've had several of them trying to get ahead of me in merging lanes. No respect for Honda's.

I've noticed that in heavy traffic people will change lanes right onto you if you are slightly behind. I think it's because the S2000 is so low and people in these jumbo size penis substitutes adjust their mirrors at the right height for other jumbo size penis substitutes. They just can't see us
