    Facelift What can you get away with as far as wear and tear on a lease?

    you must mean repair the bonnet and f/bumper not replace as a £1000 sounds to cheap if its replacement panels! The price you've been quoted doesn't sound expensive as long as it's being done properly I.e removing bumper to repair/paint and doing the whole bonnet/blending the colour into the...

    Facelift What can you get away with as far as wear and tear on a lease?

    I do a lot of cars that go back to lease company's and if you don't do the bits you've mentioned then you will be charged lease company prices! it will be cheaper to sort yourself i.e. And I wouldn't usually recomend this unless you don't care about the car get the smart repair man out

    Told them NOT TO WASH the car

    A smart repair is where they will only spray a a bit of the panel flat and polish involves no paint at all have a look on YouTube there's probably plenty on there so you can understand a bit more about what they will do to your car

    Told them NOT TO WASH the car

    Let their man try flatting and polishing the marks out but under no circumstances let him do a smart repair on it even if he gets them out 99% it's better than a "smart repair" then hit them for a free service or something as compensation
