pricing up a small spraying job
I know its difficlut to price exactly but I have a few small parts that need painting and was keen to get a rough price guide from anyone so at least when I go to a bodyshop I can be prepared. Have a brand new P1 splitter in PU from HT Autos, some 22B bonnet vents, bonnet scoop which has some paint flake and some wing mirrors .
cheers :thumb: |

cheers :thumb: Go waving pound notes, sure to make a difference! |
dont worry pound notes will be waved just wondering on a rough guide.
Me personally for a half decent job I would expect to pay £170 , is that about fair as all parts are removed from the car already. |
Your're quite local to Aylesbury are you not Tony?
If so, go see Jimmy at Gatehouse Motor Craft. He's brilliant, known him for years and can do a cash job sometimes. :) http://www.gatehousemotorcraft.co.uk/contact.html |
I'd say that was a fair price for already stripped parts.

Got to agree it sounds about right to me too.

I think your about right with between £150-£200, depending on the prep involved!.
maybe you could supply paint to bring price down?. |

I just payed £200 for front bumper bonnet scoop plus splitter bloke has done quite a bit for me great colour match to
|
Thats a good price and makes me think my guess is spot on.
cheers |
I payed £500 for rear arches cut out and replaced, and splitter, sideskirts, bootlid all painted.

Have you spoken to Lee for a quote yet? Your price above doesn't sound a million miles away, you shouldn't be paying more than a couple of hundred.

i have been looking for a price for a boot lid and small lip spoiler, and the cheapest price i have found so far near to me is £230
|
If i was doing it it would be around £280
Materials are not too bad but adhesion promoter/plastic primer is required for a good long lasting job on the splitter etc. Wing mirrors need stripping down to the covers only also to do them right. I will add though i don't do budget priced paint work so im sure you will find somebody who will do it for around £200-£225 and around my neck of the woods some people would do it for £150 but the quality wouldn't be great and neither would the prep work. |
If you're quite close to Aylesbury you could try West Herts Customs. Based in Dunstable. Check my type R project thread for examples of their work. 👍

Do you do rear arches?

Got it all done for £250 in the end , smashing job and hats off to Lee , he knows his stuff and recommend him any day

Passenger side isn't very visible but you can see it's started rusting if you look under arch. Drivers side has rusted though about 3 inch wide 1 half inch tall. Can send pics if needed.
