I bet it will fall apart in a week then for 60 quid.

How can you seriously think that a bodyshop will smooth a recess and spray the whole tailgate for 60 quid maybe his mate done it or whatever but it is no use to this post.

For a tidy job I agree you will be talking 200+. If its fillered and a plate is not welded over it, the odds are it will crack to bits aswell.

i agree, unless sumone is desperate for work, your looking around ?150, and thats done properly, ie welding a plate in,grinding smooth, small bit of filler to get smooth and then primered and sprayed!
