    How much would I be looking at to have a new roof skin installed?

    Since someones stood on my roof last night when i was out and put a huge dent in in.

    just pop it out rather than replacing the skin

    itl be cheaper to get a bodyshop to knock it out and fill it than a new skin, never had one done myself but i heard its about 500-600 to get it replaced

    Varies from bodyshop to bodtshop for roof fitting. I've been quoted well under £500 for fitting/painting
