Stone chips
I have a Royal Silver MY00 and would like to know how much it would cost to have the front bumper and bonnet re sprayed to get rid of the stone chips. Is this something that many other people have had done? It the job ever as good at the original?

I've MY99 in silver. Had the bumper, bonnet and roof done recently at scoobyclinic. Was quoted about £550 ish, but then I went and had it colour coded and a bespoke grill made and meshed the area behind the number plate and a cambelt change service and a de-cat down-pipe too. Cost me more than the £550 I can tell you, but worth every penny.
Paint work was more troublesome for the Gaffer than he first thought (i.e. paint reacting badly with what was on the bonnet already) but he persisted and three attempts later had got it to his high standards. Car looks great now. Recommend scoobyclinic to anyone. Great work at great prices.
Cheers.

How sexy does that look,,,, nice car matie.
I think it's the next investment for me.
Just ordered a new driving light for my WR1, only 2k on the clock as well.
I'm just waiting for a call and price back from them.

I had Armourfend put on from new on my RB5 WR Sport which is fairly close to silver - It looked fine, with just the line on the bonnet to show for it.
I would recommend it, however it will be as expensive as the paint job, so if you are looking to do both, it'll be double the outlay.
I wonder if we can negotiate some discount here, I got a 10% discount on materials recently as I was a returning customer, I am sure that if we generate them enough business that we should be able to extend this across the scooby community (lets hope the materials then don't mystically rise in price by 10% too)
I need them to redo some recent work so perhaps I shall follow this up and report back! Gimme a couple of weeks
