   how much do people think a body shop would charge to get my boot lid badges smoothed and painted ?
   
   and any ways to cut cost down

   I was wondering this, also got some rust that needs attention so might be best with a full boot spray?

   to give you a rough idea, i got a price to weld/smooth bootlid,rear washer jet,door locks and bonnet jets and was quoted £75 , this however wasnt including spraying
   
   like john says, ask in your local bodyshops as everyone has different prices.

   When I had my old sax I wanted the smooth boot and so on and a place in stoke was willing to smooth the boot, sand and prep, paint for £150, in the end I just bought a smooth boot for 15quid off a lad breaking his saxo
