cymru-corrado 0 Posted January 5, 2006 sourced a new bonnet for my 16v as original got a big ding in. the new one i got was already primed needs maybe slight sanding then top coats and laqueur. anyone got any ideas on how much should expect to pay? new bonnet would just need spraying and can fit it myself so no need for extra cost of that.

Walesy 0 Posted January 5, 2006 Try Autopaints in Leckwith off Hadfield road. They charge £80 per panel as far as I know, though you may some blending in done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cymru-corrado 0 Posted January 5, 2006 at the moment i've had quote of £165 guy reckoned tops of wings would need blending in as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZippyVR6 0 Posted January 5, 2006 is that a sort of average price? I need my Bonnet and front bumper doing so am looking for a guestimate of how much I need to save. Sorry to hijack the thread but would respraying cost more for pearescent colours like aqua blue? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted January 5, 2006 cymru-corrado, yeah, I would ring Autopaint and see how much they would charge, you may find that it's chepaer than £165 ZippyVR6, I don't think that ABP would be more expensive, but it is a bugger to get a good match with it!

dub envy 0 Posted January 5, 2006 I'vw been thinking about a front end respray, but as every panel on my car has something wrong I think I'll just get the lot painted!! Got a quote for £1500 full respray.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted January 5, 2006 I got the bonnet and blend + bumper prep to plastic and painted for £320 I'd say you have a good price mate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
