tbh i would leave it all for the bodyshop unless you are that confident you do a good job of the prep.

If you do a shit job and they finish it in the shop then you will be alot worse off. Spend the money and have it done properly because even if they dont do a superb job you can question them on it and then at least they cant blame your shit prep work (not saying that its shit)

Especially as they will probably re-do it anyway when the bumper comes in
