You banglers dont have these, but my nose cone is rusted to f**k. I put off looking at it until the weather got better and by then - it was too late.
(I actually think it started from behind and worked its way through anyway.)
Anyway,
I've got a quote: Supply original BMW front panel = £64 (they are getting it from some place in Sidcup) Fitting & painting = £36.
Sounds reasonable??? (Eurocarparts have it for £69 delivered, so not bad on that score)
He said it was 30-40 bolts altogether.

Sounds more than reasonable for fitting and painting. Is the paint solid colour or metallic? Hope he's not just using aerosols. ;-)
It's black,
I often see them respraying cars there with all the proper painty stuff. No Halford's carrier bags in site!

It was more than reasonable. So much so, that when I gave him the £100 cash, he looked at me and asked "Where's the rest of it?"
Turns out when he said £64 for parts and £100 "all together" - "all together" meant fitting and spraying.
Still sounds OK though. But I have to go back for him to finish spraying because he said the weather was too hot yesterday.
