Nobody used someone in the area?

Ok, I've had a couple of quotes, how much should it cost to do a whole car 6 panels?

Thanks

I recently had a rear bumper and bootlid sprayed ( supplied as loose parts) and that was £400 - but that's South East / London prices .......

One panel cost me £80 - and you can still see it. Eventually the wing will have to be changed. It depends on the size and type of dent really, so everyone's quote and end results will be different.

I would suggest finding via the internet your local freelance dent guru and give him a call..
That's what I did when I bought redfive (a few years ago now) and he did the whole car for £100 cash in hand and that included a couple of strange fist sized dents on the roof
Cheers Ian

Some body shops will recommend a local guy, a lot of them have somebody on call.

Impossible to say because some damage will be worse than others, but if I were looking to get that done I'd be expecting to pay around £300 (average £50 a panel)

How much have you been quoted?

Anyone had any joy with those glue-on solutions for pulling out parking dings? My drivers door has a couple which always catch my eye but do not warrant full-on repair.

Yes and no, bought a kit - chocolate poker. Have a look on youtube with cans of compressed air and a hair drier.
