Right, thanks to the inability of one (or more) of my neighbours to parallel park I need to get some work done on the front bumper of our car.

It's been dinged a few times on the same spot so the paint is completely cracking off. I've had a chat with a body shop down the road from me and they're recommending a complete respray of the bumper (which is what I was expecting).

The price, €360, reasonable or any other recommendations for the south side of the city? I also had a chat to Auto Smart Systems (www.autosmartsystems.ie) who quoted €250 for a partial respray. It's an 07 MX5, metallic stormy blue colour.

I've attached a snapshot of the damage. I want to get it worked on asap as this weather is gonna do a right job on that I'd imagine.
