car repairs - Balbriggan

Morgans

Hoping that the brains trust can help me again here. My girlfriend did some damage to the car last night. Its pretty superficial - a scrape against a wall - but it looks like the scrape has gone through the paint and I am thinking that it might rust up. Anyway, I am looking to get it fixed, but it would greatly help if anyone with good local knowledge could direct me towards a more reliable garages/car repair places around the town. I'm sure that most places would be able to solve this pretty quickly, but if anyone had any good previous experience it would be a great help. Many thanks again.

Try Ray Fagan's in Loughshinney. Heard he was good. Not sure about price. A lot of the main dealers sub contract their respray work to him.

Try Glen Tyres in Convent Lane. (The street on the corner of which the Milestone pub stands).

The lads in there are sound and if they cant do the paintjob, they will definitely put you in the right direction of someone who can.

There's also Dent Magic in Balbriggan - dunno the number though.

Can you clarify your remark?

I was merely saying the guy is quite funny.

It appeared to me that you were being derogatory about the chap.

The original poster had made no query as to the humurous character of Glen or his operation, they had merely asked for advice on having some works done to their car, therefore your declaration of Glen being a joker or not has no relevance to this thread at all.

Lighten up and stop being so quick to go on the attack.

Why you felt the need to comment in the first place is beyond me.

If I as a poster can't make a comment about the guy being humorous without you feeling the need to comment based on an incorrect presumption then I don't know what the world is coming to.

I mentioned he was a humorous character as it added to my prior experience in dealing with him.

Simple as.

Take it to PM tbh.

Balbriggan Tyre & Exhaust - can personally recommend them.
Dentmedic: I understand they only pull dents where paintwork hasn't been breached (could be completely wrong on that though...)
Glen Tyres: my old lad swears by them.
