anyone give theres a full respray,
how much was it?
its a white 99 type r,
iv got a little dent on a wing,
one on the bonnet, one on the roof,
bonnet and bumper and splitter destroyed with stone chippings.
couple of carpark dings down each side,
little bit of rust on filler cap edge, door edge and boot edge.

i got a quote for 2,000ster to spray.
this would include knockn out every dent, priming the bits of rust,
and giving it a full spray again in white primer.

cos i got a price of 1,200 without the roof off nethr lad but dont fancy him doin it.

am i being screwd??

no thats not a bad quote but i would expect a very good job, u pay for what u get, don't go to some monkey and pay £800 or it will devalue ya car by about 3k

I could do it for around £1500 depending on how much rust there is and how bad the dents are and thats for a full respray.
At the end of the day u dont hand your money over if the job is not right and yes it is right a good job is hard to find cos there is so many cowboys out there. The jobs ive done over the years have been to a high std and people have kept coming bak and there family and there friend so on and so on.

All i can say is whereever you get it done or go for a quote ask to see something they have done recently.

i work down Northampton for a massive Peugeot Bodyshop as my job but have a large double garage transformed into a booth at home were i do all my work;) . If you brought the car to me i would need it for a week and you could have it back. Not like your usual bodyshop were they could have it a month if ont longer because they have that much work on.

Let me know if u want it done and wel sort something out:thumb:
