Due to a few too many stone chips, some petrol fouling, a bit of diffuser damage, some deep scratch's (Bonnet and rear panel caused by fcensoredrs outside) and the paint showing some signs of age anyway I've decided that I'd like to get the whole car done.

Now I know this isn't going to be cheap but I'd though I'd start here to get people's recommendations for body shops (I'll need a repair on the diffuser as well as the re-spray) and some idea's around costs.

I live in London but have also easy access to NW/Midlands too if I need to leave it. I imagine Power is one good option but others would be most welcome.

The aim is to have the car ready for Chatsworth 2010 so you can all tell me how good it looks! rolleyes

Skipe, believe you are not far from me. Bee Gee Coachworks in New Malden did a top job at blending my bonnet (pearlescent paint too). Indistinguisable. And good value!

ETA: He does lots of TVRs too. Give me a PM if you want his mobile number, I found him a little hard to get hold of without it.

Try SP Automotive http://www.spautomotive.co.uk . Incredibly cheap compared to other fibreglass specialists I have come across.

Vote for Option 1 in Bromsgrove again, attention to detail is fantastic and the finish is better than when TVR's were new...

Will definitely go back there.
