 At some stage the bonnet on my car has been painted. There are places that the paint has flaked off. Aluminium has a reputation for being hard to paint, so I would be careful to make sure the shop know what they are doing. Can they provide references for similar work, so you can see if it has stood the test of time. Are their any local Land Rover guys who might be able to recommend a good paint shop for Aluminium body parts?
