    My car's bodywork is in good order apart from a few scratches and an excessive amount of deep stone chips on the bonnet which have chipped back to the white base coat paint.

    It's only the bonnet thats annoying me, but i think it unlikely that the bonnet could be strpped sanded, smoothed and resprayed and match the rest of the car. Am i wrong??

    It's a 5dr corsa. old model 00. how much should a full body respray cost, how long would it take and can anybody recommend somebody to do it in the Mid-West.

    Opel had problems with primer with your model car for that age, i.e. soft primer + hard paint = paint chipping. Any good panel beater/spraypainter should be able to match the paint on the front of your car with out respraying the whole car, they might paint the front section. Trust me I'm a panel beater.:)
