Spray job
 
I know I am being lazy, but does anyone know a good paint shop not too far from, or in Bristol? And has anyone got any idea what it may cost to have my bonnet resprayed if I prepare it myself? (aluminum has corroded in two spots)

Also, out of interest, how much does a complete respray of the whole car to the same colour cost roughly, including preparation? (red MY93)

They are called Youngs Car Body Repairs... Last week he had an Audi TT, 911 and a new Mini S and seemd to be pretty good. Was recommended on reputation so we will see. Will be picking it up at the weekend hopefully so will let you know. Will post pics if possible.

Sounds promising, I will make a note of their name in case it is overpriced nearer by.

Excellent, and thanks for updating this thread with your feedback. When I am ready I will ring them for a quote, to at least compare others against. Got any pics of your car since the work has been done?

Regards,

Robin.
