If its not a DD or a Showca do it your self then get someone to paint it.

Its not that hard I'm self taught and i'm rough enough to do it.

no i rather someone who knows what they are doing does it, seeing as its in mint condition and has never had a scratch on it before this.
photo doesnt really show it that much but that side is pushed in, and if you look at the car from front on its lop sided on that side

if you dont want this to stand out you will have to paint the whole truck
Or do a spot touch up of the damaged area's and hope that they can blend it in.

If you paint the whole panel or clear over it, It will stick out like the proverbials.

in any case, thats a very easy repair to do without painting or damaging the rest of the guard/bonnet. you will find that where its pushed back it can be adjusted back straight. the most noticeable will be the headlight support panel.

Nathan's Smash repairs on Annangrove Rd near Windsor Rd. Parents used them a few times and they where great, but expensive. Hence why we only used em when insurance co's where paying

There's also a guy who's a semi retired panel beater in Riverstone, just gets work by word of mouth now. Can PM his address if you want.

ring up Porsche, BMW or Mercedes dealer and ask for their preferred beaters

Nathans rings some bells though as posted above

be prepared to pay through your teeth.

is the paintwork on the truck faded, or just very muddy?

They are a long way from you but Ray Genner Body Works in Brookvale did good work for me. In particular, their fabrication work on my front and rear bars was excellent.
