Incredible bummer

[2kcoupe]

My 2000 Coupe was in storage over the winter. When I took the cover off, on
St Paddys day, to clean it. I noticed some deep scratches on the front bumper
and hood. I should mention that I live in the city, and rent a driveway with 2
guys that use the garage for carpentry purposes. When I saw the scratches,
I went berserk, still very p&ssed off. My question is, can I have the scratches
repaired without having to paint the nose of my car? Does anyone know of
a reputable Covette body shop in the Boston Area?

Note: The scratches are only paint deep, no actual body damage. As far as I
can tell.

Thanking you in advance for any responses. Hope none of you ever have this
happen to you.

Oh wow, that is a shame. Was it scratched even with the cover on?

As for the scratches, I don't have any info there. You might start a thread in the Off-Road-Lounge or in the Regional Northeast section for reputable body shops in the Boston area.

Good luck.

Sorry to hear about the damage. Ron's is up in Fitchburg, but he's one of the best:

A Corvette is actually not safe anywhere except your own garage...and sometimes not even there....sory about the mishap..hope you get it fixed soon

Thanks Guy from Dunstable. I'm going to head over to Ron's in Fitchburg, and

see if he can help me out.



Again Thanks for your input.

I know how you feel. I've got some scratches in my hood from stray cats using my car cover as a bed and scratching post at night. So I've got to replace my cover and have the scratches fixed eventually. I've only had the car a month and a half too!!!

My poor neighbor has his Porsche 944 under a cover, or what used to be a cover. His is so bad, that when you see it at first, it looks like he's got the whole side of his car duct taped!!!
