Bonnet Respray (2010 Zetec S)

[trickards]

Hi all,

I've been getting some quotes on a repair for my 2010 Fiesta Zetec S. A van (or some high vehicle) must have backed into my car while it was parked - it has scratched and bent the front edge of the bonnet. To make it like new, it'll need the bend straightening out and a complete respray, weighing in at around £400.

At that price I was thinking it might be feasible to just buy a new bonnet (I get some discount on Ford parts). However, a new bonnet would obviously need spraying too - which I am told will cost around £330 by a local body shop.

Do any of you know how that price compares? £330 just for a spray and fitting of a bonnet (NOT including the part itself ~£150)?

Cheers.

Not sure where you are from your sig but check out eBay, a frozen white one here nice and cheap!

£330 to spray and fit a bonnet :o

Don't know where you are in the country but my local place would do that for £100
