Got my car back from shop for a respray of the front bumper and hood. No wreck or anything...just had a rock chips, a small dent on the hood from a friggin pine cone. Also had a little tit on the hood from years ago when I tried to help jump start someone on a windy day....dang hood blew closed with the jumper cables sticking up. Its bugged me for years!

The guy I use is very reasonable and does a great job.

Total was $500 and included some touch up on my roll bar, which I chipped in a few places when I installed a new to with glass window. I'm always surprised how little he charges. He does work on a lot of high dollar cars from a shop that has no street presence or advertising.

The shop was recommended to me by a local indy who knows and uses this guy all the time.

I'd post pics but it wouldn't help show the work. The match is great and there is no overspray. Headlights, side markers and trim under the bumper was all removed.

He's done my wife's 350Z (twice, not her fault!) a 99 M Roady and now my Boxster S. Each time, I was very pleased with the results (and the price!).
