Anyone know a good car body repair place?

I am in need of expert care for my body. Car, that is. In the spirit of posts I've seen here by folk seeking plumbers, electric kettle advice, etc, hopefully one of you Agreeables can offer some thoughts. :idea:

My beloved near-new Toyota Auris has sustained a wound to its plastic wrap-round bumper. :( :x It's just above wheel arch area, a gouge about size of a 50p bit, some 2/3mm deep. These problems look small enough, but cost more than you'd credit, usually, probably much more at Toyota main workshop. So any info would be welcome. Ta!

Will do, when I've sorted out how to do this - doubtless through Andrew!

Ta da. I think it's a sand, fill, sand, spray, laquer job...but for someone who knows what they're doing and with paint matching rather than a cannister job.

Roy give this guy a call, works privately from a huge house at the top of the hill in Woldingham, forgot his name, very good cheap price on body repairs and respray, although as you can see I don't take my red van there.
