I need some panels on my E92 M3 sprayed. My local BM dealership is Westerly and they have Yeovil Motor Company Bodyshop in their group of companies. Has anyone used them and can advise on their service and ability to colour match. Richard

Does anyone have any bodyshop recommendations in the Shropshire area. Potentially looking at half a car respray with pearlescent paint. I'm super fussy as we all are when it comes to paint. This needs to be done correctly 1st time with zero defects ie dust in paint or overspray and perfect...

Hello All, Hoping to be active here. Picked up my first 8 yesterday, '95 840ci metallic black. In basically sound order, but needs some light attention to keep things right for the future, so on the hunt for an 8 friendly garage and bodyshop around west London / home counties. ( I'm in...

Hey guys/gals - Got some minor cosmetic damage that I need to have sorted in the Kent/Southeast London area. Can anyone recommend a trustworthy shop that can do the work? Much Appreciated! Erik

Ok so I have these two patches on the front and rear bumpers which need painting. I'm told to avoid mobile guys as they're not worth the money (sorry to any mobile paint guys - just what I've heard). I was thinking of attempting this myself if the cost were too high but I'd rather have it...

Hi, can anyone recommend a good bodyshop for repair of my vehicle in the Tyne and Wear / Durham area. A bus crashed into it and the company are willing to foot the bill but I want to make sure the work is done properly and to a high standard. Thanks in advance.

Hey all. I have a bit of lacquer peel from a stone chip on my rear quarter panel of my 330i. It's around the size of a 5p piece and the paint is unaffected. 1. Can anyone recommend anywhere to get this fixed? 2. Any ideas how much this should cost roughly? Thanks!

I've got a 2001 320i facelift model. It has a little bubbling on the rear arches and one rust spot the size of about a 5 pence piece. I'm tempted to take it to a bodyshop to sort it instead of having a go at sorting it myself. Any idea how much it'd cost to sort the issues out? I'm going to...

Howdy, Can anyone with a 'Titan Silver' Car tell me what the colour match is like when painted at an approved (only) Body Shop. I'm toying with getting my 2010 E9x Bonnet and Front Valence painted as its badly stone chipped and been told that 'Titan Silver' needs blending into the wings. I'm...

Hi Guys, I recently went a local bodyshop to get a quote for repairing some rust on the drivers side rear arch. I don't really know what the going rate is for this job but think the estimate I was given is pretty expensive and was wondering if anyone knew any trusted places around London that...

Someone has hit my bmw on the front and has left some scratch marks and damaged the plastic. probably needs to be sanded down and body filler to be used!!! is there a good respectable workshop? not had much experience with them, and the experiences i have had I cant say have been very good.

Hi All On my way home this evening several 'undesirables' were dropping bricks off a bridge and one of them hit my car on the bonnet. My car is an E90 3 series which will now need repairing. The bonnet will need the paint stripping and the damaged area filling and making look good. Can...
