How big are the scars? If it's just cosmetic scrapes, use ChipsAway. The local franchise is Scott Eustace, tel 07753 958126.

He sorted my car out and did a brilliant job of a scrape on the bumper.

Hi Jon,

I had to have the bonnet painted on a previous scoob (came back from dealers with a dent in the bonnet) and this was put right by Pickering Coachworks (I think that's what they were called). Anyway superb job and passed the 'streetlight' test which is pretty amazing for a red car!!

Let me know if you require further details.

Ok Mr SPG Group...

I have actually seen your website before...

Where are you as I am in leeds...

How much 'roughly' would you charge to respray the car... bearing in mind I am going to be 'fussy' as the bumper currently has a run in it from whoever did it before I owned it.

I realize that you cannot quote exactly as you need to see the car but If you give me a rough price then I can just say yes you can have the business or no! simple as that.

However the car needs a 'full' exterior respray... I would say the doors have at least 10 stone chip like sized dints in each, (5door) Back passenger door needs little more work..

I also want things such as the lights and trims removing whilst it is painted... (It has had a new quarter panel put on the rear...)

I dont mind leaving the car stripped bare.. as it is now and putting it back together myself...

Hope this makes sense...coz reading it back it doesnt to me.

I work in the bodyshop at Skipton Ford, we could do the job but it'd probably be a bit pricey, you could try Silver Star at Carelton, they're rumoured to be V.good. Not too sure of phone no.s though!
