Any recommendations for a front end respray? Have some car park scuffs/stone chips to take care of.

Its a white Renault Megane rather than anything exotic if that makes any odds.

Only depends on what you're willing/prepared to spend really - I've not heard of a cheap body shop in a while. Even expensive ones can turn out poor work.
I've had a few bits done by Specialised, but they're probably on the higher cost end

Yeah I'm aware of Specialised from last time I needed a bodyshop (someone shunted my Elise 14yrs ago!).

Wasn't planning to give them a call.

Tony resprayed the front of my MX5 last year, great job at a good price. He is normally very busy, so you may have to wait a while for a slot. Lots of positive reviews online too if you want to check those out.

Thanks. That looks like the sort of place I'm looking for. I'm in Caversham too.
