Good priced panel beater needed - Mangere area

Recommended Posts

Which panel beaters would Auckland members recommend in the Mangere area (or wider) that are reasonably priced?
A nephews VW Polo failed a warrant due to panel damage to passenger side doors (didn’t know this is a wof failure). Understand they are dented and will require paint. Will post photos when I get some. 

He is only in Auckland on a temporary basis and doesn’t have the contacts.

Thanks in advance!

Interesting. Maybe they deemed it as dangerous to people outside the car?

I know right. Haven’t seen the damage but I understand that it was scrapped and dented don’t know if anything is protruding lol.
FYI it happened a little while ago (was driving in a car park and someone reversed out of their park, ‘hitting’ the side - so low impact) and he was uninsured at the time so needs to sort it independently ☹️

Good question, not 100% but I’m guessing no more than 8-10 years old. Will find that out too 😁

Its surprising easy to fail on panel damage due to structural requirements
