If i get work done at a body shop............
best to get one that is recomended, then properly check the work before paying or taking away.
If there is orange peel, bad masking up, overspray, pitted marks, colour differences etc etc, then really this would ring alarm bells as to how good the job has been done.
What you want spraying>

They should discuss with you the reasons if they're not giving you a warranty/guarantee on bodywork in my opinion/experience...
When my RS Turbo shell went to the bodyshop the first thing that happened was a phone call to say: "If you want a warranty on this, then there's more work that needs to be done".
What you having done?

Having both rear arches replaced and also a few weeks ago i hit a bird playing chicken with me on the dual carriageway

(That was taken right after, hence the feather
)
So yeah the arches are the main job, then while its there i want the bumper repairing and the black plastic grill attaching back on.

Ive always worked at top notch bodyshops (well there shit holes,but on paper were ment to be the bollocks)
And 99% of them,give a lifetime guarente on all work..So if you have a new panel on,and it starts to rust again,or paint bubbles/defect youve coverd...
Thing is,if your having arches put in,because of rot?? If it comes back,then you might not have a leg to stand on,as its a modification to an existing panel,NOT a new panel...So best to see what they say before you go ahead with it...
