he says he is going to cut them right back and replate the arches but i think just fitting new panels would be better.

Re: tidying my body work up

We got a good bodywork guy over in Morley - he charged £700 year before last to sort out several bodywork problems, dents, rust etc and a complete respray plus debadging (although I rebadged it later on lol) - did an amazing job, the car looked like a new car - it was well worth it - see my post entitled '£380 Tipo Sedicivalvole' from a year ago.

He also sorted out the Barchetta which was metallic blue - the whole car needed a complete respray due to faded paint on every panel, also did several dents, a couple of cracks in the bumpers and debadged it - that was £600, beating our next best quote for the work on that crappy car by £600.

He's doing a few 'spots' for me on the Tipo again in May. The grit on the roads has not been kind to him over the last 5 months.
