BIG UPDATE-

Got car back today. Was charged £350 all in. What do u think. Got both rear arches done,front inner wing done (had to take off old outer wing but as nearly new put back on) and basically all stuff needed for mot inc. a bolt missin on suspension.

Rear arches got a lip on them - is this how its supposed to be? Needs to be grinded down and filled and smoothed.
Bit cheesed off as he didnt do the bit under the bumper but as this is covered by the bumper itself i might just cut this off and rust treat it. Inner wheel arches all done too.
Now just need to get the inside tidyed up and smoothed hammerite everything!!!
Then put interior back in after a good clean - mot it then get the painting sorted on the outside.
The bodyshop nxt door quoted £600 for smoothing all the arches and blending them in. He reckons as the car has had a respray before he will be able to get a good blend and wont need a full respray.

Pics:





Bonnet wont catch - had probs before - is there something missing from the pic above?








Cant really tell from the last 2 pics whats been done as he sealed everything.
