Has anyone ever bought any ready painted body parts from DR Motorsport.

Im thinking of buying a mesh grill and sti splitter. I have heard a rumour that the paint finish is Sh**e and bubbles after a little while.

 

Are they based in Scotland?

 

Yep I bought a P1 Splitter from them had it painted and shipped to Germany where it is still attached to my car after about 2 years still ok, a bit chipped at the front where my GF hit a car park ramp with it but other than that it seems fine to me.

 

If it's the one I'm thinking of I bought an STI5 rear spoiler, STI5 front lip and side skirts and they all came ready painted.

Had them on my old scoob for over 2 years and never had any problems.

 

Cheers all for the quick replies.

It is the one in Scotland.

I best be getting me credit card out then......They have some good deals on there and with the Free paint looks like a bargain.

 

Got a front bumper from DRM allready painted. The quality is superb and it was packaged and delivered with no problems. Highly recommended!

 

Got a rear spoiler for my WRX, can't fault the finish.

 

Got an STi 8 scoop for my classic and the finish was perfect! .... been on for 8 months now and still looking good.

Picked it up from David himself .... really decent guy and a big Subaru fan!!

 

Looks good mate. Was the scoop easy to fit?????

 

Thanks mate!

It was fairly easy to fit .... the scoop itself is just a fibreglass mould but it comes with 2 aluminium strips and 6 nuts and bolts. The strips go inside the front and rear lips on the scoop and have to be marked and then drilled through in the position of the original holes in the bonnet. The strips basically act as mounts for the bolts so that theres no pressure on the fibreglass. Aligning and marking the holes is the tricky bit!

Once on, you wouldnt know its a fibreglass copy, the finish is excellent and at the £140 it cost me, incl. painting, I think its a bargain!!

Have a look at http://rb5oc.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=1235 for more details.

Cheers,

Ok great thanks for the info I think I may have to get one of those aswell.

Costing me a fortune this Scoob is.....

 

Ive had many products from David Reid Drmotorsport for the Scooby i have now and my previous 1 and product has always been excellant
Never had any complaints,real helpfull guy 2

 

had some 22b vents for my95 ra,ready painted excellent quaility and service,couldn"t fault it,good prices too,i thought.

 

Bought my PIAA's of David and bumped into him on numerous occasions. A true enthusiast and very trustworthy.

 

Another recommendation here - I bought some bits for my old Scooby from him and would recommend David without reservation.

 

I bought a spoiler from DR motorsport

Had a bit of bad luck with it, but David was good enough to offer help in the face of adversity.

It was down to finishing quality control and packing for a long journey to Oxford, but he is aware of the problems, and his return policy is second to none.

Decent caring bloke to do business with, recommended.
