That's correct they have said they'll blend into the door and rear bumper

to be fair I was expecting a price much higher than what I have been quoted

[dy63]

I think its an average price.

prices down there must be different to where I am but lately im just going off recommendation

I would of expected to pay around £200 here for that from a good reputable garage - up north ive heard its sometimes even cheaper than down here!

where are you based can I ask?

[335ier]

£300 is the going rate for that sort of job.
Pull as much of the dent out as possible.
Fill the rest.
Paint etc.
probably be in 2-3 days ish for drying time etc?.

Yep those bloody skips are a PITA. I remember once I was on a hill on a private yard & needed to go back a little to get out. It was the morning & I wasn't quite with it. Thought (or not) I'll just roll back then move forward. Of course no parking sensors.BUGGER.

Vtech in Perivale are quite good. They do a lot of insurance work too. Proper body shop and reasonable rates for private paying clients.
