Your last two "accidents" haven been a skip and a house. A thought it was women who hit static objects? How bad is it?

[TheBALDpuma]

Errm Hannah was driving.... *cough*

It's not too bad. Past t-cutable but only about 2 inces square on the front side of the wheel arch. I'll get a photo in a minute..

And a photo. ..

Oops! Hannah my arse

Has it dented the bodywork? Smart repairs are usually £100 - £200 aren't they? Could be well off there.

[TheBALDpuma]

No dent just a scratch on the flare on the wheel arch.

£100 seems closer to what I'd have thought. It's only a little scratch.

A proper body shop should be able to do that for between 80 -100 quid.

I use Lee Cox at Station Road Bodyshop in Kippax. He repainted the rear bumped on a friends XC60 due to a similar scratch to the one in the OP's picture and the total cost was approx 80 quid.

Right Okay. I think I might get the bumper re sprayed then as it's fairly badly stone chipped.

Anyone know a good bodyshop near me, Guiseley/ Horsforth area? (I have no idea where Kippax is)

I live near Horsforth and it takes me 20 mins to reach Kippax which is near Garforth (around outer ring road towards A1 at Aberford). I have not used anyone in the area's you mention, so unable to comment.

Hi BP,

Very close to you, on the industrial estate past the airport, where the caravans are kept is JCS. I'm sure I've mentioned them on here before 0113 250 8706, I've used him for years, reasonable prices, good finished product & attentive, I have an azure zed which is notoriously difficult to match but he got there.

Ex Aston Martin, very nice guy. Ignore the look of the workshop, he is very good.

I've just recently use Chris Gregory in Knaresborough. He did an amazing job on a dint and the paint that was scratched.

Bit far away from leeds west however went on the recommendations from a few people on here and so glad I did and would go back to him for anything else i need doing to the car.
