Returned to my Lovely Venetian Blue Chim today at work to find some T&*T had put 2 large chips into the drivers door and frame by obviously opening their door and crunching it into the side of my chim.
of Course they were gone, no note or way of identifying (but I will be looking at doors today for traces of blue paint and if I find them they will be sacked on the spot !!) leaving me just a bit annoyed.

Any advice on repairing these chips ? Relatively small but will need filling. What is the best filler/sand paper ? How do you get a really smooth finish ? I ave touch up paint but it is a metallic colour and will be difficult to blend in. Or is it best to ge it done at a TVR body shop ?

Appreciate any advice

Any body shop should be able to deal with this, not the sort of thing to do at home unless you know what you're doing IMHO

The same thing happened to me recently, but fortunately for me the car was still parked next to me, unfortunately for them they now have a 5 inch gouge on there door.
