Body shop - Disco 4 paintwork NW/South Cumbria
Hi all,
The MY66 Disco 4 has incurred some battle damage..... don't ask....
Looking for replacing the two front wheel arches, one of the rear door wheel arches and a largish dint/scrape across the passenger door.
Plus some scratches/peeling of the paint on front and rear bumpers.
Anyone else seen this? Around the headlamp washers and the fog light holes/trim.
And some general TLC all round.......
Looking for a quality job from people who care.
Any recommendations for body/paint shops in NW/South Cumbria area - anywhere between Penrith and Lancaster, and Barrow and Skipton would be great.
Many thanks
JC

Hi again,
OK - deep breath....
One of the front wheel arches had an argument with a fallen branch off road....
The other front arch and rear arch (same side) were trashed by a passing vehicle in a supermarket car park........
The door dint/scratches from a car park bollard - been waiting a year and bit for someone to drive into it
Also been looking for used arches to fit, but non coming up in the for sale on here or on ebay.
Funny thing is when the car is being used day to day the damage is not that noticeable.
Time to get it sorted out after Christmas......
Thanks
JC

Greta Bodyworks at Keswick have a good reputation, but possibly that's a bit too far north for you? https://www.gretabodyworks.co.uk/

I’ve got a good set of D4 painted arches I’ll be moving out, but no idea what colour you’re after, as you haven’t posted your D4 profile on your sig panel. ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧
