Do you mean who Bell Colvill on Slyfied use for repairs?
...or something else? Could pop to MSO round the corner in Woking.

Chroma Concepts did some work on my 650s, can't fault them (and I am very fussy!!)

If you don’t mind, what was the work and what region was the cost?

I ask as was watching a year old video by a well known Mac indie who suggested panel repairs were £1,000’s not £100’s. With paint codes more readily available, is a panel repair cost cheaper these days?

About £1,200 all in to repair corrosion and repaint one front wing, included new PPF

Thanks, so £1,000 a panel is probably too much for just the corrosion and repaint but not a million miles away.

For PPF I've been using Auto Protek who are based at Minley Manor - they replaced the front grille PPF on Dads Bentley GTC and the PPF on the bonnet of my 720S.

Both jobs all very good

Second for Auto Protek, used them multiple times. They also work with Chroma Concepts for paint.

Given that Auto Protek use Chroma for paint, my guess (and it is just a guess) is that they outsource it to Auto Protek. Especially as it isn't really promoted on their website.

my car is in at Guilford at the minute - i chased up to see what was happening and they said the body shop had not submitted the paperwork correctly hence a delay. I asked who they were using and they said a company called Steer?

The nearest Steer is Steer Farnborough, which is the old Rainbow Bodyshop behind the Shell garage near Bradfords Roundabout.

However Steer group also encompasses Fastlane Guildford which is on Slyfield, so it might be there.

I don't think Fastlane is McLaren approved, only Farnham.
