cars in for an insurance job, it got smashed up, cos i aint claiming off my own insurance i took the car to the best bodyshop and most expensive i know, they do top notch work my car is sat beside TVR's Porches etc, only down point is when i wanted them to smooth the boot while they were working on the rear, they quoted me expensive prices cos thats the level of work they do, to be fair it will be faultless

I wouldn't have bothered, thats a fucking rip off.
If you're happy then fair enough, but personally I wouldnt be.

i bet nowhere does them better then cossvaux
they even re cut the bottom lip and welded a new bit in so when u opened the boot it was seemless without a large bit of filler the depth of the recess
this is the only corsa ive ever seen it on and it was truely quality craftsmanship
on the other hand, my gran said she would do it for 4000 quid, so it goes to show you dont always get what u pay for

Mine was fully welded/smoothed over at the bottom, and i paid £190 finished in primer, then got vaux to spray it (for sod all  )
400+ quid is stupid......i can gaurentee that any decent bodyshop will do exactly the same job (if not better) for half the price....like mine did....that was faultless, and 2 years on, still is.

LOL there aint allot i can do, these guy do the best spraying around, there wasnt any point me having the rear bumper sprayed and tailgate by them and the finish being perfect them taking it to a cheaper garage who would sand off all the good paint and spray it up to a lesser quality, the price includes taking the numberplate light out the rear bumper too is that good and is that usually included in the prices you give, cars at Protheros in Market Harborough
