Big Gash in Bumper... AGAIN

Well... I was driving on the freeway today and a peice of metal flew off the back of truck and slashed the OTHER side of the bumper... A big long 12" gash thats pretty damn deep... like 1-1.5mm deep.

Funny thing was on saturday I was suppose to get the bumper sanded and repainted... When they do this will it be enough to fix the 1.5mm gash also? or is that too deep.

Also. There is a part of my bumper where it actually DENTED... I was wondering how I can remove that myself, since their $186 quote (sand layer and repaint, recoat) doesn't cover the bump removal.

How much does a whole new bumper cost from DaveB?

did you ask them about the dent removal?? - usually they will have to take the bumper off anyways and they'll pop it out for you
