How much for a re-spray of Jag XF bonnet ?

[Steve Campbell]

Hi folks

Looking for commentary from those in the "know"...how much would I be looking to pay for a re-spray of :

Jag XF ... full bonnet.

I have a stone chip that has broken the paint and left a small dent (<10p)...but the car is leased and needs to be sorted before the lease is out. Berks / Bucks area.

I will be calling round a few paint shops around me...but wanted to get the power of pistonheads for a ballpark figure you would expect ?

Just to close this...I had a SMART repair guy come and look at it and he was honest in the fact that it would likely be clearly visible as it's on a large flat surface...so he didn't want to touch it.

It's not the dent that's the problem, it's the chip...as it's gone right through the lacquer and paint...and that is a fail on fair wear and tear and they aren't going to miss it as it's smack bang in the middle of the bonnet.

Have gone to a local paint shop who have given me a reasonable price for a full bonnet respray (unfortunately) .. but I don't want to give Jag the option of choosing where it gets done as I'm sure the price would be double what I will pay.

Thanks for all your help and comments
