Thinking of getting my SRi into the bodyshop in the new year to get some minor cosmetics done, such as a blow over spray to get some few hairline scratches removed, etc.

Should I purchase some Steiny skirts & get them fitted and sprayed aswell whilst its going to be off road?

Thoughts?

Yep, get everything you want paining before the car goes into the bodyshop. Will cost far less in the long run...

Blow over is a re-spray... It's just what people say for some reason when they get a same colour re-spray (sounds less expesive)...

Normally a scratch / dent repairer will spray a little bit and blend it in with compound if its a touch up
