[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]following and thanks so much for the details 11:11.

I have a question if anyone is still reading. We have a big dent in a fender but looks like it could be a good candidate for a pointless dent removal. Also we'll clearly need a new bumper. Would you go to separate places for these repairs? (a dent removal shop and then the mid-teir auto body place)? [/quote]

11:11 here. I would take it to paintless dent removal first and have them work on the fender, then go to get the bumper replaced. Now, because the bumper needs to be replaced, the body shop may choose to blend the paint into the fenders, unless you tell them that you don't mind having a slight mismatch between the bumper and the fender. Depending on the manufacturer, the paint comes with a slight mismatch anyway. This is a judgment call and depends on the car. Human eyes are very sensitive to mismatches in bright greyscale "colors" such as white and lighter shades of silver/grey. Google the infamous "Tesla Paint Mismatch" issue and the resulting pictures are predominantly of white cars even though we know the issue was pervasive for all Tesla Model 3 in the early production cycle.
