Good bodyshops near Reading. Respray and fit. MX5

[WetPaint]

Ive been shunted in my rear.

Third party happy to pay for the repair so Im looking for a reputable bodyshop in or close to Reading who can remove the old stuff then paint and fit the new stuff.

Its a mk1 Mx5 and its the rear bumper and numberplate panel. Ive sourced the parts myslef so just looking for the labour.

Any suggestions?

I've not used these guys, but have heard good things about them...

... their prices are unlikely to be low, mind you, but you can always ask .

Our company uses Sunnyside autos in Elgar rd for all of the vehicle repairs. The fleet manager is always pleased with their work.

I honestly can't say enough good things about Frazer Phipps who owns/runs Headley Bodyshop (in Newbury near the Racecourse) - He's into classic porsches and has a great eye for detail but doesn't charge the earth as he does all run of the mill stuff too....

Tel [phone] or 07880 725346 - He does all the company cars here and all my own (plus family cars and anyone else i recommend) - yet to see anything but a great job!

Thank you for the suggestions.

I have made my selection.

I will report back if anybody searches for the same thing in the future.

I had a full front end respray from them and it was perfect. Not cheap mind!

As mentioned. Specialised paintwork were brilliant, but not the cheapest.

Lovely chaps.

Fit and finish is fantastic.

You obviously didn't offer a big enough brown envelope

Oi!

The stuck me in at the end of the day. Didnt need much by way of paint. Just a fit and a little blending.

Sounds like you're continuing with the above innuendo!

Glad you got it sorted and one to bear in mind for some paintwork I need doing too.
