I need to justify buying an angle grinder with the cutting blade cuz I'll be very rarely using that thing. So spending 400+ on that would be hard pressed for me. Better I get someone to do it for me. I'm only worried about JPJ, my car is already erm.... too much attention grabbing in their eyes already.

that 4oo @ more ones r more to industrial, think those medium duty 1 cost round 250, does not have to be bosch @ hilti all the time for us diyers, u can go for makita @ dewalt, it's oso o.k. u can opt for 2nd, it usually cost less than 200 unless in this recent times things have change rapidly.
