Any suggestions for a body shop to respray a front bumper cover for a BMW 5 series? It needs a minor scuff repair and a colour change.

If you contact Wood BMW/Mini in Salisbury, they have a recommended body shop in the outskirts of Salisbury. I can not remember the name but I have seen the work and it is good. As for the price, well it is dependent on repair but the quotes are free.

Hope this helps,

Andy

I have used Sandydown http://www.sandydown.com/ in the past, and I know other people who have had very nice machines done there. They always have done a good job, also it's a nice drive out to their place near Stockbridge.

Thanks for the recommendations so far - I should have added in the Portsmouth/Southampton area if possible.

If its just the bumper then try www.customise-perfection.com and ask for Dave.

Hi dude.

Whats a bumper 'cover'?

A few have used 'Haggys dad' who owns a bodyshop in west end. PM Haggy if you want more details.

The Airport Bodyshop in Fareham gets consistently good reviews; however they are a tad expensive. They wanted £260 from me to fill in and spray a fairly large chip in my driver's door.

Bumper cover = PU = big wrap-around body-coloured flexible aerodynamic plastic thingy covering the front and rear bumpers on most modern cars.
