Dent removal / re spray
Does anyone know a good value body shop (pref in the Bristol, M4 / M5 area) that could remove a couple of dents in my doors and respray both sides of the D3
The car is getting on for two years old. I always planned on having it "seen to" after a couple of years to bring the paint work back into top condition. many of the scratches can probably polish out but the two front doors need a little bit more than a polish.
I thought about contacting my insurance but want to see if i'm better off paying for it myself first.
Many ThanksDuncan

Dunc, I'll pm you the details of the a local operator for Dentmagic. He recently did a very good job removing dents on my D3 & a couple of colleagues cars. I think they do minor paintwork as well.
He was recommended to me by my friends at Simply-Saab.

Dropped D3 off at the body shop this morning (thanks KEN ). I hope to call in a few times during the week and take some pictures. They are going to remove all the bramble rash, remove the dents and respray the two front doors and polish up the whole car. Duncan
