Hi all,
So, I was at a gas station today, just minding my own business, and a mexican looking guy comes over to me and says, I will fix the dent on the front bumper for 100 bucks. I said, no thanks. he started to bargain with me and kept on reducing the price. Once the price reached 40 bucks, I thought it may be a good idea to get it fixed. so, I said, yes.
He started to work on it, popped the dent out in less than a minute, started to spray some black paint like stuff. once he sprayed around the dent area, he says, you just need to get a car wash to get this black thing off, so give me the money now.
I can't believe how stupid of me to fall for that, which I did. so, I gave him 40 bucks and then he says that it is 340 bucks. I started arguing with him. Then his boss (apparently) comes over to us. Me being a small skinny guy and his boss being a really big guy, I gotta admit, I was a little scared. I argued and argued and finally paid them another $40 to settle the whole thing.
Then I went in for the car wash and came out, got down from my car, only to look at the repaired area in utter disbelief. That ugly looking black paint is still there in that area, and it just won't go off. and the people who took my money are nowhere to be seen.
The reason for my heartburn is not that I paid 80 bucks, but my car looks even more ugly now. I would really appreciate any help on how to get rid of that black paint, without repainting the whole car. can we buy spray paint of the same color as that of the car and just spray on it or is it gonna take full car re-paint ?
Thanks.
