    I'd say the picture below speaks for itself, but I caught the edge of a wall with the side of the car turning out of a tight spot. Its only the one panel thats damaged. Its dented in around the wheel arch and there is the obvious scrapes. I'm ignoring the slight scrape on the bumper because there only so much I can handle.

    So does anybody have an idea what it will cost for panel beating/re-spray? I'll be paying out of my own pocket so I want to keep the costs down. Also any suggestions where to go with it? I'm out the maynooth direction from Dublin, but would travel a little to get it done if needs be.

    Its a Mitsubishi Colt.

    I would guesstimate that it will cost you anywhere from 4-600 to get that done right. They will end up having to spray a good bit of the front door as well, so that it blends in properly and doesn't look a different shade. Whether it was a small scrape or a big one like you have, the cost would be similar.... same amount of work would be required, masking, spraying, etc...
