What would you say is a decent price for a front end respray?

Wings, bumper, bonnet, mirrors, little inserts and stuff...

I'm curious what you would think is a good price.

I was £700 for mine, including damage repair to a front wing. Although the wing was through insurance and that alone was down as £750 so I technically got a front end respray for nothing. Bumper wasnt too bad so didnt touch it. Iv now got 8-12 chips along my drivers side though my wings and bonnet were really bad before, even to roof and sides of the windscreen. Used to make me not polish the car cause I seen them all up close

50quid is cheap for a straight respray, let alone smoothing!

Why ask on here, prices vary so much between bodyshops it pointless, I know of a bodyshop that will happily charge 1k+ to spray the front of your car but it doesn't represent what others charge.
