just wondering if the qutoe ive got for body work is good or not.
basicly the body shop is spraying the whole side of the car, plus the bonnet and other side wing. Due to stone chips and bad paintwork done by vauxhall!!!!!
quote was 650+VAT, is that good/bad/about right?
as i have no idea.

if that was without VAT id say jobs a goodun.
But saying that if they are very good sometimes its better to spend more 
I got mine done uite cheap, and my bodyshop didnt use half enough laquer so im paying for it now
