About 3inches from the rear arch. Its about the size of a tennis ball. I've been quoted from anywhere between £300 and £600. The £600 includes spraying the door aswell as the rear panel to make sure it blends perfectly. It also includes repairing a 6" scratch on the other side too. I could claim, but I'd loose my no claims and the excess is £500.

Pee Vee - bum luck chap.
