colsy 0 Posted July 19, 2008 Hi all, I'm looking at getting my car to a body shop, I got a small dent not so long ago, which is not small enougth to be ignored :censored: plus some other minor blemishes I would like looking at. Can any one recomend a good shop in Yorks area (or close to Yorks)? Cheers, Col. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIPVW 0 Posted July 19, 2008 Hi Mate, Get down to FRUDDY Auto's which is located within the grounds of CENTURY MOTORS on catchbar lane, sheffield S6 area. They have done a few bits to mine and judith's car recently and are excellent as well as competative not to mention fast! Take the car round for a quote and ask for Richard, Ben or steve all family by the way and tell them KIP sent you and you may get a better rate :grin: Kip.

KIPVW 0 Posted July 19, 2008 They are really good price wise mate, and i certainly wouldn't recomend them if they weren't any good. I'll get a contact number next week if you like but i think its one of those things where they need to see it if you know what i mean. I work nearby too so can keep calling in to check up on it if you leave it there :grin: which is what i do by the way! Lol! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KIPVW 0 Posted July 19, 2008 :rofl: At being an inspector! will sort you a number out, the onlly inspecting i do is when a car of mine or judith's is there having something done to it. I am one picky son of a b itch when it comes to my car as some folk will tell you so i'm always checking on progress while its there and they are ok with that, i even take pics of different stages, ie, filler, primer, paint etc just so i have a record of it. By what you say it's sounding like whole panel stuff as i had to have my rear quater painted in may this year due to a small cock up on my behalf but thats another story :| Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colsy 0 Posted July 19, 2008 nothing wrong with that, we all like a job doing right, how much did it cost for your fix if you dont mind me asking? Col. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIPVW 0 Posted July 19, 2008 well i think he did it a little cheaper so it's hard to say i guess but when he did my rear quater it cost £175 and included sorting out the mess i made as well as removing the bits inside the petrol flap, (the bits which lock the cap inplace) as there was a small bubble in there. I have some pics somewhere i'll try and sort them out for you to see tomorrow! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
