Our service can be up to 50% cheaper than a body shop.
All repairs are carried out to the highest of standards and are fully guaranteed.
At Smart CPR, we specialize in a full range of plastic bumper repair techniques in Dublin and surrounding areas. If you have a cracked bumper, warped bumper, split bumper, scratched bumper, scuffed bumper or if your bumper has flaking paint, our smart repair technicians can repair the damage at your convenience from one of our mobile smart repair units.
Traditional bodyshops will more then likely look to replace the whole bumper. The reason we found for this is that they just can’t be bothered to spend the time to fix the bumper when fitting a new bumper will bring them far more profit. A recent example we came across was a Fiat 500 which had its rear bumper split. Our customer had been quoted €900 for the repair, this included a new bumper which the main dealer said was €500 for the bumper alone. We were able to repair the cracked bumper andthus eliminating the need for a new one. This save our customer a total of €650. Okay I know what you might be thinking that’s why you have insurance but our price actually came in under their excess so it would have been pointless claiming.
So no matter what you have been told from a main dealer or bodyshop it’s always worth giving us here at Smart CPR a call and find out if we can help save you money.
Most repairs can be completed within 2 or 3 hours.
Cracked Plastic bumper repair:
Cracked bumpers and split bumpers are repaired using specialist welding techniques and special flexible fillers, followed by primer, paint and lacquer. This repair not only saves the bumper from being replaced but saves time and money in comparison with body shop costs. It is aslo more environmentally friendly as there are no replacments parts to get rid of.
Why Plastic Bumpers over Old Steel Bumpers?
The reasons are that plastic offers a structural strength of steel, but by virtue of its greater elasticity, minor impacts that could deform steel beyond repair can be absorbed by plastic. This is great for car owners as it means bumpers no longer have to be replaced in the majority of cases. Where damage is incurred it is capable of repair by welding. With no loss of component strength, cracks, splits, warping and even the loss of materials can be repaired by a Smart CPR specialist technician. So with the combination of welding and the correct paint repair techniques, there should be no trace of the repair.
Black Textured Bumper Repair, Inserts & Trims
We have come to the conclusion that the majority of people don’t realise that we can repair black / grey textured bumpers, inserts and trims. Repairs to texture bumpers are carried out the same way as you would a normal repair on a painted bumper. The difference is the paint we use is a texture coat paint. It is exactly what it says it gives the bumper the original texture look back again. Even if your texture parts are not damaged but are looking a little discoloured we can re-coat them and have them looking like new again.
Colour coding
Smart CPR has the latest colour matching technology. This allows our technicians to retrieve the manufacturers paint code from your car and using the latest software we can match any colour to any car worldwide
