Missus managed to swing the front of her Honda Accord (new shape 03) round into a bollard coming out of a space

Wing is well pushed in and edge of bumper scuffed, the bracket to screw it to the bodywork is cracked - Honda have quoted for new wing, bumper, fitting, paint - £1048! Getting Chipsaway to have a look but think its abit too far gone...

So, looking for a reasonable body shop, nearer Solihull the better. Dont want to claim on insurance as excess is £500...

TIA

Davlyns in Melton Mowbray are superb. They've won awards etc. www.davlynsbodyshop.co.uk/. A bit Max Power ish site, but you'll have to trust me their work is top notch. They have won a few awards for cars they've done there

But, if it is too far, then Dick Dale in Stratford did a good job of fixing my Mini many years ago when I stuffed it into a hedge rolleyes

I dont have his number though, sorry.

phew, missus had a job finding them even with sat nav!

Taking it in Saturday - They are going to fix the bumper and wing should "hopefully" come out too, so considerably less than Honda clap
