Dream Garage

Anyone with even a hint of petrol in their viens will have spent a little time wondering what would be in their Dream Garage if they had the money. Well I have worked on most of them over the years, but this was a special one when I got to work on a bunch of them together.

This post is just to let you know, I love my job!

Toyota Yaris Bumper

Toyota Yaris Bumper Repair

Sometimes it is not a big repair that people need. This was a small bumper scuff that just spoiled the “newness” of the family car. Once a car starts to get damaged, other people tend to take less care when around it. As a result more damage happens and this family didn’t want that to happen so they called Peter, on 07830 36 46 86 for a free quote.

If you’ve had this sort of thing happen to your pride and joy, call Peter and see if he can help.

Toyota MR2 bumper repair

Toyota MR2 bumper repair in Leicester.

Sometimes a trip to the shops turns out more expensive than you expect. This was the case for the owner of this Toyota MR2. Returning to the car the rear bumper had clearly been damaged by an inconsiderate motorist while parked.

Getting an exact colour match is what the ChipsAway system is about, so there was no problem getting that right, but have a look at the pictures and judge for yourself.

Call Peter if you think he might be able to help you on 07830 36 46 86

Repair to SLK front bumper

Repair to SLK front bumper by Peter of ChipsAway (PDS) Ltd. When a small bumper scuff appeared on the front bumper of a very nice Mercedes SLK the driver took out the touch up kit supplied with the car. Though a good attempt was made of the repair it was not up to the standard of the rest of the car so Peter was called in to put it right. After cleaning off the touch up paint (actually the wrong colour anyway) the scratches were filled and after making sure everything was back to level the area was primed,painted with the correct shade of  Brilliant Silver followed by a couple of coats of lacquer.

As you can see, the result is indistinguishable from the Mercedes finish

Range Rover Sport “Touch Parking”

Mercedes Wheel Arch repair

Mercedes Wheel Arch repair by Peter at ChipsAway in Leicester. When a local IT teacher damaged the rear wheel arch on his Mercedes B180 CDi he looked for a solution that would not break the bank and result in the loss of the car for a week. He found the solution on this web site, www.morethanjustchips.com and called in Peter. The work was carried out at the school in an area away from the students so there was no inconvenience involved, the work being finished before the end of the school day and at a much lower cost that the main dealer or body shop.

If something similar has happened to you, why not give Peter a call on 07830 36 46 86 and have a chat, he may be able to help.

Audi Q7 wheel arch repair in Leicester

Audi Q7 wheel arch repair in Leicester on owners drive. Big cars often make it difficult for the driver to see  all four corners while maneuvering. This was the case here and the result was an area of damage that included both the front bumper and the front wing.

As with most jobs the secret is to get the preparation right, so much time is spent filling and flatting prior to adding primer, paint and lacquer.

The end result, a repair that is indistinguishable from the original paintwork.

If this has happened to you, why not call Peter on 07830 36 46 86 for a chat.

Porsche Cayman S bumper repair

Porsche Cayman S bumper repair.

While working for a local accountants in Leicester, one of their Clients stopped by to see what I was repairing and we got into a chat about repairs and the kind of cars I worked on. Thinking the Ford I was working on was my target audience I let him know that I have worked on almost all makes, I will often say ‘Fords to Ferraris’ to indicate the range which also includes Rolls Royce, Bentley, Porsche and Maserati.

It was at this point that he told me he had a new Cayman S at home with a scuff low down on the front bumper and asked if I could quote for the work. This was arranged and the job booked in as Porsche advised the parts needed to be replaced at a cost of almost £900, so £150 was a bargain and the work carried a better guarantee!

The work was carried out in half a day at the Customers home, as this was the most convienient location for them, and the car looks as good as new again.

If you think I might be able to help you, please call me on 07830 36 46 86
