Keyed car/vandalism repair - Marc
Evening everyone. Unfortunately SWMBO's car was keyed last week. Deep scratch about 40cm long across the rear nearside door. I've had Chips Away round to look at it but it's too deep for a "smart" repair so a full door respray is necessary. I've had a reasonable quote from a local firm so will be looking to get them to do the work. Problem is, I only bought the car a month ago and paid quite a bit for it so am nervous about getting an A1 job done.

What should I be looking for when picking a bodyshop and also when I pick the car up afterwards.

Opinions please.

Thanks.

There is a chance, if you give us your approx location, that someone here might suggest a good local body shop. :-)
