Bodywork Damage

I have a few imperfections in the paint work on my car - things like stone chips and small marks. Some of which are obviously unavoidable over time. There is one bigger dent / bulge damage though and I wondered whether anyone has any advice for me about what's the best / most cost effective way of fixing these?

    Too much for a good detailer to sort out there Alex

    Find a good body shop and get a quote. If first pic is bonnet then probably respray. rear bumper the same. cost £300- 450 ish Once done get a good detailer to apply protective film to the areas like bonnet and front of car. This stuff is like a vinyl film but has self healing properties. well worth having done.
