Hello there, I have some experience in home spraying and I know a couple of painters in the derbyshire area, I know this is no help but this information may be.

Get to know your car, how the headlights come out, the dor cards come off, the tail lights come off etc, remove the bumpers and REALLY clean all of the car yourself every nok and cranny you can get to.

All this will leave is for the paint shop to mask up and key the car, then apply paint. You should get that for 600 pounds easily, but check howmany layers you will get from each coat, ie how many coats of paint and how many of varnish, you'll be surprised by the different quotes you get.

Best of luck with it anyway, one thing I would suggest is to have the bumpers painted as well as it really changes the look of the car for the better.

Regards Andi
