Car BODYSHOP recommendations in Hove

[gullshark]

My bonnet has some rather unsightly laquer peel and faded paint, since the car passed it's MOT with flying colours I've decided to treat it and get that and some scratches repaired.

Anyone got any recommendations for a reasonably priced place ideally in Hove / Portslade? I know of Portslade Panelworks but they charge an absolute fortune.

I did a quick google and a small company run by a couple of brothers (DT Repairs) came up, the pictures on their website look good and they are exceptionally cheap, but with stuff like car body repair I would value some personal experiences.

Chars.

Reeves are now shit, had mine repaired there for an insurance claim had to go back 5 times because work not up to standard,
ie first time, bumper inserts missing, "oh you don't need them to drive it, we will send them on"
open bag of sand that was in the boot, now on front seat, " oh we had to move it"

did not replaced damaged front wheel, it didnt look too bad so we didn't replace it" although it was later proved they had charged the insurance company for a replacement
and never ready when they said it would be, and quality of work poor,
in my opinion like.
