This Fiesta was hit at the front corner in a low-speed collision. The other driver’s insurance accepted the claim, and the owner chose to bring the car to us rather than the shop the insurer suggested.
What we found
The bumper cover was torn at the corner and pulled away from its brackets, the headlight was broken, and the front fender was creased behind the wheel opening. Underneath, the bumper reinforcement had taken some of the hit but was still straight.
What we did
We sent a full estimate to the other driver’s insurance company and handled the back-and-forth with their adjuster. The bumper cover, headlight and fender were replaced with factory parts, and the brackets that hold the bumper to the car were replaced so the new cover sits flush. Before paint, we checked the gaps between the fender, hood and door.
The result
The new parts were painted to match the blue and blended into the hood and door, so the repair doesn’t show from any angle. The owner got the car back in under a week and never had to call the other driver’s insurer.
