So today my brain switched itself off..

..and I accidently swapped paint with a workmates Kia Sedona :confused:

. It was parked next to me, I reversed out of my space and when turning right managed to give it a bump. I seem to have a small chip taken out of my bumper so I imagine his is much worse as the scratch was about a fifth of the bumper long.

So how much to respray a big bumper like this? Its that horrible glittery beige colour if that makes a difference.

One of those mobile repair companies should correct it for £50-100 depending on how bad it is a full bumper off respray would be around 150-250

Found one near me called Spraycraft, looks pretty decent. I had no idea people could do it out of a van.

Make sure they are happy with that before you get too excited.

If I was the other cars owner then a mobile job in a dust filled car park would not be acceptable in the slightest. It would be body shop of my choice or it could go through insurance.

Its a Kia Sedona in the glittery beige colour, I dont think they are too bothered about what their car looks like

(Good point though)
