Maybe a bit too far for you, but I used C&P Panelcraft in Croydon, when just before Christmas, I had an encounter with a deer I'm sorry if any of your presents were delayed...

But yeah, extremely professional and a very fast turn-around. Recommended!

I done a days intro to paint correction at kds a few years back. Their work really is top drawer. They have some real automotive porn in there. A full respray and wet sand on an enzo was probably my favourite. Kelly used to post a lot of threads over on detailing world. Lucky boy getting your car sprayed there.
