Can anyone recommend any decent body repair shops or scratch repair businesses in and around south manchester.
caught my car on the wall on the way into the car park at work and its left a meaty scratch (will get pics up later, when i get home) from the handle to the rear arch on the passenger side and about 6inches high for the extent of the scratch, and yes you can feel them, right done to the bare metal....JOY
any help really appreciated.
cheers.

i thought about it but i thought those kinds of paint repairs didnt work so well on large scratches, especially those down to the bare metal!!
