Hello, I've spoken to some guys at work (CAT engineers) & car mechanics, where I get my mot done etc & they reckon I would need my whole bonnet repainted.
Any advise on where to take poor wee mini & approx cost for this sort of repair?
Also, in all the recent snow & ice I accidently skidded & reversed into salt bin in my street & now have horrid yellow & white scratches on my bumper think touch up painy would do the trick? Do halfords do blackeye purple?!

As a guide my mate takes £150 + vat to do a bonnet. He is a very good painter.
I wouldnt touch up a bumper, It wouldnt cost that much more to get the bumper done when its all ready in getting the bonnet done.
My wife did the same but it was a large white rock. I got a smart repair done to our bumper and its brilliant - Chips Away did it.
Plus having had work done to a bonnet you need to cut in the wings to get a good match for the paint so the bonnet doesn't stand out.
Thanks for all the replies, think I'd better wait til xmas etc is over & done with then maybe get some phone numbers from a couple of ya, if that's ok.
