They should be able to just redo the lacquer if theyre careful....get a few quotes it'll vary from place to place but it will be a few hundred quid i should think.

They will have to flat all the damaged laquer back until its perfect but make sure they feather it out porperly otherwise you will see undulations in the paintwork.

I'd say no more than 250 quid!!
