Need to repair small scrape to paintwork is this a specialist job or can it be done by any reputable bodywork shop?

For my tuppence worth I'd think, if it's the bodywork then any Bodyshop that has a familiarity with Fibreglass could do it, on the other hand, if it is on the bumpers then anywhere who is familiar with painting plastic.

Many thanks, as it is on bumper then I guess any bodyshop will be ok

There is a section in the Wiki 'paint Repair' about DIY repair if you fancy it, at least it will appraise you of the process. The link is here:
