Bumper repair shop?
I' m looking to get the screw holes for the front plate mounting bracket repaired. I have a green plate so I don't need the mounting bracket.
I've seen pics of the plugs but I really don't like the way that looks. I've also see videos of guys filling the holes with glazing compound and then using touch up paint but i don't think I have the skill or patience to get it to come out good. Can anyone recommend a shop to repair the holes?

The body shop I would recommend is Mike's Auto Body in malden. Great work, awesome guys, and their shop car is a Java Green E92 M3. They know their BMWs really well.

I'm a bit of a perfectionist and I've had a few bad experiences with other body shops in the past with my other cars so I'm hesitant to have anyone work on this car. I was worried about the paint matching and the durability of of the new paint vs the factory paint. Again the guy at Mikes assured me it would match and be as durable as the factory finish. I've only had the car a couple of months so I'm just going to enjoy it for now. I might try the bumper plugs, even though the perfectionist in me will not like them.
