2022 Chevrolet Corvette – Bumper / Left Quarter Panel

When you own a masterpiece like the 2022 Chevrolet Corvette, even a minor collision can feel like a major disaster. At Automotive Enterprise, we specialize in high-end collision repair, ensuring that your mid-engine performance machine returns to the road in showroom condition.

Our latest gallery features a 2022 C8 Corvette that arrived at our shop with impact damage to the rear bumper and the left-hand quarter panel.

The Damage: Bumper and Quarter Panel

High-performance vehicles like the C8 Corvette require a specialized touch due to their advanced composite body panels and precision aerodynamics. This particular Corvette sustained damage to the rear driver-side corner, specifically:

  • Rear Bumper Cover: Impact damage that required structural part replacement.

  • Left Rear Quarter Panel: Dents and surface abrasions that compromised the vehicle’s sleek profile.

The Repair Process: Precision & Craftsmanship

To maintain the structural integrity and resale value of this 2022 Corvette, our technicians followed a rigorous repair protocol:

 

 

  1. Bumper Section Replacement: Because the impact compromised the mounting tabs and the integrity of the bumper material, we replaced the damaged section with an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part. Using genuine parts ensures that the factory sensors and exhaust fitments align perfectly.

  2. Quarter Panel Restoration: Our master technicians performed a meticulous repair on the left quarter panel. Instead of an invasive full-panel replacement, we used specialized techniques to restore the original body lines to a “factory-straight” finish.

  3. Refinishing & Paint Match: Achieving a seamless finish on a modern Corvette requires an expert eye. We performed a precision color match and used a multi-stage painting process to ensure the repaired areas are indistinguishable from the original factory paint.
