Rough estimation on bodywork repair! Recommendations

[Carlv8415]

Thinking of purchasing a Clio 182 through work (Ex company car). The car had fairly large dent on the rear drivers side quarter. The majority of the damage is just the metal pushed in but there is a slight crease in the metal. The car is black so it not overly obvious it's there but I know it's there! Can anyone recommend a good body shop in the West midland I.e Swindon area? Or does anyone have a good idea how much it would roughly cost to remove? I not after exactly figure due the description being kind of vague, any estimation would be a great help tho.

Spraytech in Cirencester are meant to be good. No idea on price, I guess it depends how perfect you want it, will need blending into the door at a minimum and possibly filler unless they can knock it out. Difficult without seeing it though.

I not to bothered if they can't remove the crease. My main concern is just the large dent where the metal pushed in, but I suppose they could fix that with a hammer.

No one on here will be able to tell you what it will cost, no two body shops charge the same so what you'd be better doing is just taking it to whoever comes recommended. We tell you it's £150, body shop tells you it's £250 = a very sad Carl.

Yeah I know what you mean, price can vary from place to place! I just was seeing about a rough estimate. I was willing to except the fact there could be completely wrong due to the description being so vague. Just didn't wanna go in thinking it be like £50 to find out its £300 or vice versa.

I hope you get it sorted reasonably cheap in any case buddy!
