I know this topic has been done before but I'd be grateful for any pointers nonetheless.

I need to swap our Discovery and it has a number of "parking blemishes".

Looking to get a decent fix but easy on the wallet (cake + eat it).

I think the stuff that need attention is pretty much the following.
  • Scuffs to front quarters.
  • Scratches on plastic wheel arches.
  • Both wing mirror covers (repair or replace).
  • One small dent in lower section tailgate.
I've attached some pics at the bottom of this post.

Any recommendations in Aberdeen or close? Somewhere out Westhill way would be good as my missus is at TAQA quite often.

For the sake of clarity, I think all these scratches were me. frown

Thanks - Eric smile

I had my E46 M3 tidied up by Graham Dawson in Greenbank Rd, he's been in business on his own for just over a year, but I've been using him for various jobs on a homer basis for the last 10 years.

Always a great job, fine guy to deal with too.

If you do pop in past, just tell him martin sent you in by.

Hes in beside Greenbank 4x4 centre.

I had my mum's car repaired by Warren at North East Autobody. Good work, and not silly money like some other places wanted.

Eric,

Another vote for Warren at NE Autobody. He'll be getting a car from me in the next week or so too.

One of the companies mentioned above I wouldn't recommend. But because of the rules on this forum you can't say which.

The company in question rushed the job and ultimately the finish cracked. Happy to provide more info in a PM if you wish.

Another one here but may not be the same outfit?

'Unnamed' bodyshop did a shonky job. A man on a galloping horse at dusk would have seen the paint mis-match, plus several lacquer runs, dirt inclusions, fisheyes, ragged masking tape lines etc. Big confrontational attitude from the owner to go with it.

PM me for details (and photos!)
