Hello gang. Can anyone recommend a company who will do hood repairs in the Falmouth area of Cornwall? Google isn’t coming with any websites. The headlining of my Son’s Beetle has dropped and we cant get it to stay in even after swearing at it and taking all the skin of my knuckles……

Hi

Got the details!

As said Derek Smith is retiring in July
His telephone number is 01209 843481

His colleague (Patrick) is taking over the business after July
His telephone number is 07495 842442

Derek has got great recommendations and is used by many local businesses ( car restorers)

I going to try and pop back tomorrow and book in my e46 for a bolster repair, something I've been meaning to do for a while

They are quite busy so allow for that

Will they do a leaky rear window on a TT Mk1 roadster? Not sure if it needs a new roof or not.

But the pint would be nice

I finally managed to pop in today to book the bolster repair

Was expecting a delay of many weeks, it's being done next Tuesday!

Hi

Just to let you know the bolster repair has been done

First class job, if it wasn't for the newness I would never have known

Recommended!

( and no, no relation to me smile)

Edit!
Dropped it off at 9.00 and collected it at 16.00, same day
