   Hi guys,
   Has anybody had any experience with having a car painted? We've just taken delivery of a 206 in pink which needs to be painted for my girlfriend.
   
   Parts that need to be painted:
   Both Front Wings
   Bonnet
   Front Bumper
   Passenger Door
   
   Anybody know roughly how much I'd be looking to get this done? I'd rather pay for a trusted bodyshop to do it rather than have a dodgy job by having it done on the cheap.
   
   Photo of the car:
   
   
   Also any bodyshops that you've had good work done by would be great
   Cheers.
   Mathew
