Paint "SMART" repairs and/ or pro valet

    I got a few scuffs and scratches taken care of a few years ago by a 'paint doctor' type service and was pretty happy with the result. I have looked today for a similar service and can't find anyone doing it here in Cork.

    I think it's time to take care of a few arch scrapes and things on my 2002 black Stilo and I'm wondering how to get the bets results for the least spend and if these smart repair guys are all after dying out??

    The cosmetic work I'd like to take care of is as follows;

    - two scuffed wheel arches
    - driver door edge needs touching up
    - both side skirts need to be bonded to the car at the top edge (they're screwed underneath) and...
    - both side skirts have had a single screw driven in to hold the skirt- ideally these screw holes need covering up and painting over
    - the fuel filler car has had a bad DIY job done and it needs to be modded (a small finger notch added because the push-to-open function is buggered) and painting
    - the usual smattering of door dings
    - the usual smattering of light scuffs and scratches


    The wish list includes;
    - the very bottom of the tail gate is mangled and could do with a little hammering straight and painting along the bottom to make it respectable
    -I'd really love to colour match the mouldings and door handles if cost effective

    If all of the above were done the car would be immaculate. Almost all of the list I could compromise on but I believe there is an optimal, cost effective list.

    Any recommendations for any group that could perform any or all of the above here in the Cork/ Munster area?

    Before someone else does, I'll point out the obvious. All of the above will probably cost more than the car is worth.
