CazzaVR 0 Posted August 22, 2004 Gonna get the following done: Bonnet and front wings respray Colour coded grill, headlight surounds and rear number plate surround. Been quoted £200, but the guy can't do it until November :shock: so I'm going to take it somewhere else. Sounded like a good quote to me- what do you guys think? Is this too much or is it too cheap? The guy seems to know what he's talking about and the other cars around the garage looked excellent. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted August 22, 2004 Seems cheap to me..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted August 22, 2004 Yeah - seems bloody cheap actually. I got quoted just under £100 to have a scuff on the bumper of my last Corrado smoothed over and resprayed! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted August 22, 2004 Good prices, done by a good shop, seem to start at around £185 for a single panel. I would imagine that both front wings and the bonnet counts as more than a single panel, so I'd expect it to be significantly more than that.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_mat 0 Posted August 22, 2004 It also depends on where you are... ooop north it's not so pricey... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted August 22, 2004 It also depends on where you are... ooop north it's not so pricey... and of course it all depends on whether your painter uses quality paint or cheap paint.........spoke to the guy who did mine today and he told me the paint cost is mental for quality metallics whereas you can get cheaper paint but the quality aint great Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted August 23, 2004 Yeh, seemed cheap to me, but his work looks top notch. My paint isn't metallic, which may have brought it down a little. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
