Hi All

Need a little bit of advice. I've got a fair few chips/pitting on the front of the car (inc. morrettes), bonnet & wheel arches.

I was just wondering would it need a full re-spray of the areas and if so what the ball park figure on re-spraying these would be? I know this might be a fairly open ended question, but I’m just looking for an idea of the cost.

If I do get them fixed, it would have to be professionally done, I've seen the results of the touch-up sticks you can get and to be honest they are rubbish.

Oh and its Aegean blue as seen in my avatar.

Cheers

I looked into this for my car too, I wanted rid of all the flat spots and chips etc on the paint all round the car (although the front bumper and bonnet were obviously worst affected, being a 8 year old car) and I was quoted £150 from a local body shop. Havent yet contacted any mobile/smart repair companies but it all depends on the severity of the chipping and amount of damaged area. Try find some companies and contact them for direct quotes - and they like pictures rather than words!
