I'm near Stansted airport, but I'm only doing it for nothing as im not ready to charge yet....i am 99%certain I could make that disappear though!
Go round some dealers and ask for their dent men's number....its only a quick job and they might be able to squeeze it in when th?y are doing the dealers cars......trade price would be nearer £50 I reckon.....they might charge £80, but it shouldn't be any more👍

Ha! That’s exactly what I call it! I’ve been practicing for around a year now and I’m at the stage where I know my limitations!! I won’t try anything unless I know I can’t make it worse!😂 I am a tiler by trade, a firefighter by career and a bodger/fettler, just because!!
There are quite a few out there who are worse than me, but make a living from it ... then there are the voodoo high priests, like barbell’s mate dentfx, who are genius at it.... when I’m at that level I’ll charge!!😂

Got the wheels done and the painted parts fitted. The blanking plug for the wiper looks load better now I've painted it. Gloss black grills next i think and the black angled vanstyle side bars once I've saved some more ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Been without my van for a week now. Feeling pretty lost without it. Is that sad?
Will be worth the wait
