Well I am just putting the DB9 away for winter and noticed a few unsightly stone chips on my bonnet and bumper. Anyone recommend a good stone chip repairer in the East Midlands?

Many thanks

I can recommend Complete Car Cosmetics in Derby. Chris used to run a bodyshop in Derby before setting up on his own. He sorted out scuffs and chips on my Vantage as good as new.

(PS it's not my Vantage on his website)

Jockman, you should be on the stage rofl My hairdressing would be as good as my stone chip repairs, not really my forte being a near 40 something and bald! I would say I got the Volante to feel the wind in my hair, but given I don't have any it isn't a plausible excuse!

Honestly can't remember, they were wrapped up with a few other bits and pieces (i clipped a wing mirror and had a scuff on a bumper). It was very reasonable and the quality was top notch, i've used him a few times on other cars.

I used Chipsaway a few years ago on one of my previous chariots - they did a fantastic job.

The chap that did mine is called Dave Hemmings - he's based in Stoke, that may or my not be too far away, depending on which part of teh East Midlands you live.
