Only small bits and pieces mate (front grill, etc). If you're referring to a whole panel, ie, door or front quarter panel, then I would have a pro do it.

Seriously mate, if it's a large area, you will seriously struggle to get anything like the finish a bodyshop could!

I've just had my car back from a place called Hallcraft - they're based in Cradley Heath. I know one of the directors there. The work was faultless!
