    Bagged myself a nice Passat but need some small damage to the wheel arch over passenger back door repaired.
    Any suggestions on who would do it without raping my pocket?


    Thanks :D

    If the paint isn't broken or marked, a good mate of mine does paintless dent removal.

    If it's a panel beater, filler, paint job it's a simple case of you get what you pay for.

    Rather than post my opinions on prices and work... Drop me a PM if you haven't found someone.

    Got a front bumper sprayed and fitted yesterday (needless to say the bumper wasn't straight forward as it was cheap as chips / not original part from eBay and needed more than a little persuasion)

    I paid HALF what I was originally quoted.

    Now, I'm a pedantic fcuker and the colour isn't 'an exact match'. To get that, I'd have to spend twice what I did...

    Think your friends name is Artur is it not? Seen his website, looks like quality work, theres a small ding in the passenger door I'll be using him for. The paint on the wheel arch is broken in places and will need the skills of a panel beater. The car other than that is perfect condition so I'm wanting to bring it back too 100% :D

    He wanted €400 cash to do it. By far the most expensive quote. Ended up going with Keith O'Brien for €250. Cheapest quote was €150, but the cheapest isn't always the best quality and Keith came highly recommended.
