Default Dealing with Stonechips, bumper grazes and Lacquer

it seems all I do is post new threads on how do i do this and that but I am keen to sort out my tired facelift D2.

My D2 has what I consider to be a very high mileage and the paint is far from perfect given its done 174K miles. Ideally I would like to tidy up the front end a little as it looks its got measles from all the stone chips. There are also some grazes on the bumper in the corners as well.

How much do you think it would cost to get the frontend tidied, I would guess the bonnet and bumper would need respraying.

Also

The lacquer on the boot seems to have bubbled in a couple of places, is it possible to have that sanded back to the base coat in the affected areas and a fresh coat of lacquer applied.

Any recommended places in the Poole / Bournemouth / Blandford area of Dorset.
