I think he means on the bonnet Looks so much better when it's done.
already been done. bonnet smoothed and the bumper, also the bar in the middle of the 'mouth' of the bumper has been removed and smoothed whch is why i wanted it repaired rather than getting a new bumper.

on the boot???
I'm gonna get the quote then see how much more it is to do that!!
I'm looking on the bright side as i know it'll look even better once it's fixed as the font bumper had a crack in it anyway, plus it needed a new shock so that'll get done as well!!
no the bonnet and bumper.

How much would people expect to pay to smooth off the handle from my boot???
I realised last night that i can't get it done now as i haven't got a solenoid yet and to access the boot from inside means taking out the show cage!!!!!
Just a rough figure?? £100??
