Reconditioned OEM Covers

When you order an OEM Reconditioned Bumper Cover from Micro Platers Sales, we start by selecting a core from an inventory in excess of 5,000. When available, we recondition the most popular cores and put them into our inventory for rapid delivery. However, our standard operating procedure is to recondition bumper cores on demand, after a customer places the order with our call center.

When you places an order with our call center, the first step is to select a core from one of our storage yards. Our repair technicians use standard repair procedures and quality materials to restore each bumper cover. Every core is different. Some bumper cores may need to be strip sanded, sandblasted or submerged in a hot water bath before we can start the repair process.

Once we start the repair process, it takes approximately five hours just to do the structural repair. Then every fascia is primed with a water borne primer. Some fascias require several coats of primer with appropriate drying time between coats. After our technicians completes the structural repair and the bumper cover is in primer, the bumper cover is inspected, packaged in a plastic bag and scheduled for delivery.
