Ye hard to tell much from those pics mate, and if it is chips that's making your paint look dull then Iv not come across any detailing method that erases chips. Maybe get a quote for painting the bumper whilst it's in the shop.

Pretty much yeh. Lol ;-) hope you get it sorted pal.

Also without seeing the car in the flesh or pictures it's hard to comment not knowing the full extent of the paintwork.. For example he mentioned "It's taken over 18 months to develop as well as countless long journeys and the daily commute across back roads ... So hasn't done badly IMO and...
