i cant find one in my colour, platinum silver, been searching since i got the car, found a couple but they all seem to have rust starting, which is not worth getting as it will soon escilate to the condition of mine...i attempted the how to stone chip repair on here but on the rust patches....epic fail lol i now have a rusted bonnet with s**t loads of scratches that refuse to polish out with every polish they sell in halfords!

So your bonnet wasn't as bad as the OP's? But the '£100 mark' is cheap for the whole bonnet to be prep'd & sprayed. I stick with my estimate for a good job with no favours.

Poss Cant say without looking at his but had about 5 patches about 4sq inches each. 1st place I went to did it for that so didn't t try anywhere else, thought it was a good price. Job was floorless too IMO. Lol

You should probably try a body shop, as every one charges different prices, people on here can only tell you what they think or have been charged, which may be totally different to what you get.
