Bodyshop quote this morning, £200 + vat, will have to be blown into the rear door and the front wing, so that it doesnt 'look sh**e' were the guys words  :signLOL:

They do all the main dealer work close to me, so fingers crossed.

One bloody 3second scratch resulting in all that bloody work  :fighting:

Sorry makes me mad everytime I read threads like this!


One handy piece of advice....

A Indy garage owner told me that for all those types of repairs to paint he uses a local detailing company.  :wink:

He said that the quotes are very competitive, and that if there are any tiny little blemishes to the repaint or any overspray that has been missed they are worked on by the detailer (maybe at a later date, but still)

...I thought it was a good idea, providing you can find such a detailer in west yorks  :happy2:

Cheers Carlo,

The only one that springs to mind is Jay@miglior, but he's over the wrong side of the border.

gutted for you. never had a car keyed but had one broken into (got nothing) and another reversed into with no details left (headlamp, grille,  bonnet, bumper.....)
it seems nobody has any respect anymore  :sad1:
