Ive got some damage on my boot as you can see from the picture(if the link works)... I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how to fix it, and what i would need to do it, like what fillers, primers and paints etc. and the best ways to do it. The red circle is a small dent, and the green circle is a deep scratch down to the metal:/ and as you can see there is other damage in the area. Thanks Marcus.

I'd say 120-160 to repair and paint that.

As said its a lot of messing about if you dont already have the equipment and materials to do it.

I had a bit bigger dent in the same location on my boot lid. cost me £130 to get it filled and sprayed and 20 odd quid for a new badge set.
If your boot is metallic dont bother doing it yourself you will never match the colour. Get it done professionally.

I'd agree getting it done by a pro is the way forward.
Jakes work is excellent, check his project thread and previous cars done.
