120 quid is about right for a bonnet cos of the amount of materials involved and thats not blending.

yeah I work in a bodyshop as well m8. And the materials dont cost anywhere near that much to paint a bonnet. what makes a bonnet harder to paint than a wing or quarter or something?

Shouldnt cost much, you dont have to blend it to wings, just get it done at a decent place and they should be able to colour match it well.

I was quoted £200 to colour code everything on my car, thats door handles, boot handle, scuttle pannel, arches, tops of bumpers, wing mirrors and runners on the roof.
