Before
Visible damage establishes the starting point. A complete estimate still depends on inspection because hidden damage may not appear in a photograph.

How to read the gallery
Damage tells only the beginning of the repair story
A finished surface depends on the work underneath it. These photos show different stages, including damaged bumper covers, surface preparation, masking, refinishing, reassembly, and completed exterior repairs.
Process
Preparation may include removing components, repairing the surface, sanding, masking, priming, and preparing the repair area for finish work.
After
The completed view shows the repaired shape, assembled exterior, panel appearance, and finish after the authorized work is performed.
Collision repair sequence
White Bentley front-end repair
The front bumper began with cracks, scraped paint, openings in the bumper cover, and damage around the lamp area. The sequence shows the damaged condition, masked refinishing stage, and reassembled front end.
Bumper refinishing sequence
Gray Alfa Romeo front bumper
The bumper was removed so the damaged surface could be prepared and refinished. The completed image shows the painted bumper installed on the vehicle with the grille, sensors, and trim in place.
Cosmetic body repair
Red Mazda front bumper
Scrapes and finish damage were concentrated near the headlamp and grille. The comparison documents the starting damage and the restored appearance after the repair.
Textured bumper restoration
White Jeep rear bumper
Textured unpainted bumper material requires a different finish approach than a painted panel. This sequence shows abrasions before repair, masking and coating work, and the restored bumper after the process.

Windows, trim, wheels, and adjacent areas are protected while the prepared panels receive finish work.
Bodywork
Hyundai side-panel repair
The rear door and wheel-opening area are being shaped and prepared before refinishing.
