Morning All, just wondered if anybody could give any thoughts on weather this is a good price or not - appreciate without all the photos you will be unable to say concrete but I have asked a local body shop to price this up:

Tidy up of bonett as paints pealing on front lip and there's splodges all over where it wasn't done right before.

Passengers door lock popping out and smoothing over (after someone rammed a screw driver in there)

Front bumper patching up and respraying as it's flakey. (you will have maybe seen the pics of my bumper)

Rust on the rear corner near the Peugeot text.. (right on the panel line to the left of the Peugeot text on the rear end of the car seems to be a thin line of rush about 2 inch long)...

The garage have come back advising:
£400-£450 and that's everything even taking the dent out of rear passenger quarter as well

What are peoples thoughts?

Are they fully re-painting the bonnet?

Cool - I dont have the cash yet as they are doing my alloys today and checking the engine mounts. So if they do a good job of the alloys I'll get back for the rest next month.

In my opinion it'd be worth looking into just buy a good-condition 2nd hand bonnet and bumper.

It'll definitely be better with fresh paint but OP did mention he doesn't have the cash and it would be a cheaper alternative whilst still being perfectly acceptable.

Wont be getting it done till next month or the month after but will let you know. I just think it will be easier and cheaper to pop it out and smooth it over as the key lock itself is pooped from the screw driver. Central locking still works though.

as I am guessing the other option would be to get a full set of new barrels which I cant be bothered with.

I've a lock set if you want?
