Help. How much does it cost to have a bonnet re-sprayed?

Not a happy person.

I'm looking for advice here people. How much is it going to cost to have my bonnet re-sprayed in Black Magic paint? Any clues?

Some darling little children decided to attack my car on Friday night and use the bonnet as a chalk board by kindly carving a peni$ into it and writing 'c*ck' next to it. Isn't it just lovely to know what the some kids are growing up like these days.

Sorry to hear that.
I would say it may around £200 which would include the paint. You may get it done cheaper but if i was you I would take it to a good Body-shop so that the colour is matched up perfectly.
Let us know how you get on...
Good luck and in future keep a shotgun handy....

CoxW is in the Newbury area and paid £250ish IIRC for a Leon bonnet in Metallic Platinum so I guess £200 - £250 depending on damage

Quoted £200 from my local Seat approved bodyshop.

I got quoted £130> £180 by various bodyshops and that included the top of the wings, i dont think my paint is metallic though

yeah make sure you check the place out first...look how clean or messy the place is...might give you an idea on how its gonna come back!! Prices vary as already posted by peeps. Im getting all the plastic bits colour coded, cupra bumpers painted and a scrape in the rear arch sorted for £180 - but i know the guys.

Thanks for that, really nice thought

I would post a pic of it, but can't work out how to do it. It's shocking what they've done. They probably bumped the price up cos they no I'm desperate to get it off my bonnet.

Thanks very much for the advice though.

 

[j.a.kelly]
