Ok, car is minted bodywork wise apart from front and because its a dark colour shows up loads of tiny stone chips on the front of the bonnet and the bumper has a couple of marks on it.
I have two choices with two quotes.
1. Take it to a bodyshop that i know from previous experience will do an amazing job, they will spray the wings back to the doors, the whole bonnet, and remove the bumper, and spray. I will be safe in the knowledge that the car will return from them looking brand new at the front. There quote £350 (did a deal without having to pay vat)
2. Take it another bodyshop, that is a smaller affair, never used them, im pretty sure there work is ok, probably not up to the standard of the first bodyshop, they will spray from the grill down on the bonnet only, not touch the wings, and spray the bumper. There quote £180

basically do you think 350 is well overpriced for that kind of work?

£350 is a good enough price for that amount of work.
You'll more than likely regret taking it to the 2nd and getting it returned with sub-standard work.
Bodyshop a for me
