Phil, no doubt sum **** tree hugging sexually confused asylum seeker worshiper minority type will deem what U said to be racially offensive and insist the mods edit your post!!!!
But no sane Yorkshire person will, or me

Yorkie, if I wanted a cheapo job doing I'd spray them myself (I got the gear) but want it to last longer than a couple of months so I'm after a quality job at a fair price. One supposed "quality" bodyshop wanted over £200 so I told them where to go!
Would think £200 should get BOTH sets painted.

BOB

PS. I WOULD tell your insurance Co. I told my insurers before I took the policy out that it had body colour side skirts (was no extra premium cost) so as far as they R concerned my skirts are painted already!

Cool

Good bodyshop will be able to do it circa £100+

I paid £120 and I still do not have a single chip in them

Question

Do they take the sills off first before painting ?

Yorkie,
Your car's Silver IIRC...
If your thinking of having the sills colour coded, do U think we cud get a good price for having yours and mine done at same time?
It can't be much difference in price from 1 to 2 sets... same paint and all that!

Was just a thought.

Bob, I'm only thinking about it at the Mo, but your idea sounds like a good idea to me. It would have to be a decent bodyshop though. Does this mod need to be declared to the insurance co. ?
