That looks like a quality repair job your doing there. No messing about trying to repair it like some people would.

Great work!

 

It a big job, but we do our best

 

Nice repair, good to see someone taking pride in their work and doing it right.
Cheers Ben

Proper cut and shut job, done really well and looks tidy

 

Looks perfect again, Top Job on the repairs & VIC check was a breeze

 

Glad we could save her

While fitting used 1/4 isn't something we like to do. Sometime cost dictates what you do.

All in all she's come out well. Even had a quick machine polish and wax to revive the rest of the body
