Auto body repair & detailing: Paint Off from BMW, minor scratches, car mitsubishi


Question
Hi,
My wife yesterday bumped into a BMW series (green) parked right next to our parking space and chipped off some paint from the rear end of the car.The car also encountered some minor scratches around the same area.Apparently, there is no damage to the body besides the paint.Our own car(Mitsubishi Lancer ES(silver)) also had a similar damage in the front where it got hit.We have left our name and number on the car.I am just interested in knowing that whether the BMW can be fixed at a BMW dealership, and what would be the rough estimate for it.Apparently, the car is brand new and my wife is feeling very guilty for the damage.

Any help in this regard will be most helpful

Thanks,
--Ratul

Hi Ratul,

Unfortunately, I can't tell you what it will cost to repaint it. There are alot of factors that will play into the price. The actual paint code of the car can vary the price considerably. Also, it depends on where the damage is on the car and and where the painter will have to break the color and clear-coat. Sorry I can't be of more assistance.
