Smart Repairable?
« on: February 11, 2012, 11:41:16 am »
We are having some work done on the house at the moment (new ceiling in the bathroom) and these marks have magically appeared on the new Polo GTI. I went over the car with a fine toothed comb when we bought it, and it hasnt been anywhere apart from on our drive since we got it. Apart from a couple of hour long drives.  :fighting:

Anyway, to cut to the chase, they are denying that they have caused the damage. There was a scuff on the rear 1/4 as well, but that has come out.

Does anyone think that the chips are smart repairable? Ideas on cost?

Thinking about touching it in with a genuine paint stick now and getting someone like Russ to work his wet sanding magic on it.

I dont want the likes of chipsaway painting half the lower panel and compromising the paint for when i get it detailed.

I know. Im so pissed off.  :sad1: The car was immaculate. No stone chips on the front, no scuffs. Couple of marks on sills from people getting in and out of the car. But apart from that, it was Polo minty.
