    mk7 golf side skirt repair suggestions/ cost estimation


    Hi group

    I accidentally curbed my mk7 golf just then and leave a quite deep dent/scratch on my side skirt(or sill panel, sorry for not knowing the exact name of the part), i was wondering can anyone recommend a good place in sydney to fix it, preferable near airport or cbd, but i don't mind travel a bit. And what cost should i be expected, thanks a lot!

    here's the images

    Sill panel is the correct word to describe that part of the car. From looking at the photos, it appears you have only scrapped the rock chip coating that is applied to that sill panel area of the car.

    Not really necessary to have this repaired as its cosmetic only and basically hidden considering where its located, but literally any body shop could tidy that up for you if you wanted to have it fixed up.

    Thanks for your reply! I really appreciate it. I'm thinking about get it fixed along with 2 other minor scratch on the bumper (very small ones), and i've never had any paint work done so just wondering what kind of price am i looking at so that i don't get rip off

    $700 minimum probably unless bumper scratches can be done by a bumper repair guy
