Minor accidental damage

refers to scratches, small dents, or paint chips on a car’s bodywork that often occur as a result of minor bumps or scrapes. Such damage is commonly found on bumper corners, doors, or wings, and can happen in situations like accidentally hitting a post while parking, coming into contact with another vehicle in a tight space, or even being struck by a stray shopping trolley.

Why repair minor accidental damage?

These types of damages don’t usually affect the car’s performance, but they can diminish its appearance and lower its resale value. For this reason, many car owners choose to have them repaired, especially since minor damage can often be fixed relatively quickly and without the need for costly part replacements.

Maintain the appearance of your car.

Regularly repairing minor damages helps keep the car looking its best, which is particularly beneficial if you’re planning to sell the vehicle or simply want to maintain its appearance for your own enjoyment.
