i would say about 200, you should give turismo styling a ring as there based in essex, take a look at my car for an example of there work

id say atleast 400 coz u have to get it sprayed too and the colours willhae to match up. u could smooth the bumpers and bonnet vent yourself, save some wonga!

NO WAY ?200 and NO WAY ?400

Flushed tailgate will be around about ?250-350 for a decently priced good job, smoothing of vents, if theyve got to be fitted, your looking at ?100,
The bubble rust, depending how bad it is form 40-200 if a new rear arch skin has to be welded on, and bubble rust can be that extensive.

Finnaly smoothing front bumpers, as you've found out it is hard work and takes a long time to get right, so your looking again around ?50.

That alone is ?420 minimum, maximum of ?680,

In that you will probably find a bit of discount because of the bulk so say 3350 for the work, now add spraying for: whole boot, whole bonnet, front bumper rear arch, ?80 a panel say, and thats already ?320 minus discount again, ur realistically looking in the region of ?600+ i would say for a decent job.

it cost me 250 to have my bodykit fitted, vent smothed in, arches and doors sorted for rust, mirrors fitted, de-locked/indicatored
