Start NowFrequently asked questions
Repairing a dented bumper goes beyond restoring your vehicle's appearance. Dents impact both its safety and value. A damaged bumper often indicates that your ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) is compromised and no longer accurate.
A small dent can also signal a larger issue beneath the surface. Bumpers are designed to absorb impact and sometimes pop back into place, so while the visible dent might appear insignificant, the internal damage could be far more serious than it seems. It is worth getting the damage assessed by our team to ensure there are no hidden issues.
This is dependent on the type of policy you have selected with your insurer. We recommend referring to your policy documents to understand your cover details and any exclusions. However generally, coverage is as follows:
- Comprehensive Coverage: Yes, your bumper repair is included under your insurance.
- Third-Party Coverage: No, your bumper repair is not covered, and you will need to cover the repair costs out of pocket. Unless you are a not-at-fault driver in an incident and you have the other driver’s details who caused the damage.
Is it better to repair or replace a damaged bumper?
Several factors determine when a bumper requires replacement or repair:
- Type of damage
- Severity of damage
- Location of damage
- Material of the bumper
We recommend using our initial assessment tool to upload photos of your bumper damage. Once we receive your information, our team will follow up to discuss the next steps with you.
Yes, plastic bumpers can be repaired, depending on the severity, location, and type of damage.
There is no standard timeline for bumper repairs, as no two bumpers or damages exactly the same. Here are some of the key factors we consider when assessing bumper damage:
- Vehicle Make/Model/Year (and availability of parts, if needed)
- Type of damage
- Severity of damage
- Location of damage
- Material of the bumper
- Driver Assist Systems & Sensors, which may need recalibration after any repair or replacement
Our team can provide an estimated timeline after conducting an initial assessment of your vehicle. To begin the process, please upload your details and photos of the vehicle using our online tool.
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) bumpers provide a precise fit, high-quality materials and tested safety standards.
While some aftermarket bumpers may match this quality, others may not deliver the same level of fit, durability, appearance or safety testing. OEM parts generally offer greater reliability, while aftermarket options are often more budget-friendly.
For this reason, we recommend and exclusively use genuine OEM parts, giving you the certainty of receiving the highest quality and safety for your vehicle repairs.
There is no typical amount for bumper repairs, as various factors influence the overall expense. Here are some of the factors we need to consider:
- Vehicle Make/Model/Year (affects the complexity of the removal, refit, and repair process, as well as parts availability)
- ADAS & Sensors (will require recalibration)
- Paint type (metallic and pearl colors are generally more dear)
- Type of damage
- Severity of damage
- Location of damage
- Material of the bumper
Given the complexity and number of factors involved, we recommend using our Assessment tool to upload photos of the damage to your bumper. Our team can then perform an initial assessment and provide further guidance.
You can have the utmost confidence knowing our workmanship carries a lifetime warranty. The vehicle paint and OEM parts we use carry their own individual manufacturer guarantees which extend to you.
Yes, you can still nominate Dynamic Autobody as your ‘chosen repairer’ for smash repairs. Most insurers provide a ‘choice of repairer’ option which allows you to select a reputable repairer you trust for your vehicle repairs.
While your insurance may suggest a "preferred repairer," you are not obligated to choose them. A preferred repairer is one that has an agreement with the insurance company, which helps streamline workflow in exchange for lower repair invoices. However, this arrangement can lead to tighter budgets and rushed timelines, potentially compromising repair quality and safety. It’s essential to select your own repairer to ensure the quality of repairs, the safety of you and your family, and the resale value of your vehicle.
Due to the numerous factors involved, such as vehicle make, model, color, and the nature and extent of any damage, we cannot rely on verbal descriptions to provide a quote. Our Vehicle damage analysts need to visually assess your vehicle's damage. To make this process easier and give you the best service, simply submit your vehicle photos and details through our convenient online assessment tool:
We can assist with both. Our services can be funded either through your insurance or handled privately. We can help you determine which option is best for your situation based on the type and extent of the damage.
If you prefer to maintain your no-claim bonus or are uninsured, we can facilitate a private repair. However, we strongly recommend having comprehensive car insurance to protect yourself from significant out-of-pocket expenses. With vehicles becoming increasingly complex, including features like sensors and driver assist technology (ADAS), the cost of a new bumper alone can exceed several thousand dollars, even before painting and installation.
For an initial assessment of your vehicle please submit your vehicle photos via our online tool:
You may feel inclined to consider the other driver’s out-of-pocket expenses, especially if they are unable to afford them. This might lead them to ask you for multiple quotes, requiring your time and effort to drive around and organise assessments for an incident that wasn’t your fault. They may then attempt to choose the cheapest repair option, but how can you guarantee the quality and safety of those repairs?
Remember, as a not-at-fault driver, you have no obligation to the other driver. Your priority should be to you and your family, ensuring your vehicle is repaired correctly and safely.
It is always advisable and considered best practice to lodge a claim through your own insurance and designate your chosen repairer. This approach ensures the best outcome and safest repairs for both you and your vehicle while also preserving its resale value.
Yes, they are the same. The scope and value of the work remain consistent, so there should be no difference in value based on who the quote is addressed to.
While some repairers may claim that they can provide cheaper repairs if paid privately, it’s important to be cautious. Often, this stems from a desire to win the job, leading them to cut corners. There is no valid reason for a difference in quotes, regardless of whether they are for insurance or private payment.
The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is a unique serial number that allows us to accurately identify your vehicle. This ensures that the repair methods and parts are appropriately matched, resulting in precise quotes.
The VIN number is typically located on a small metal plaque under the hood in the engine bay, on the driver’s or passenger side door jambs, or on your vehicle’s registration paperwork.
