ok, not too sure where this should go, so mods, feel free to move it.

As some will know, the blackbeast has had a few dents and scratches over most of it's body. So am thinking about a full respray.

So the question is. Where in the Kent area can I get a full respray in black mica (paint code 47A) and how much would it cost, and how long would it take?

Thanks for any info.

Markus, do your m8s at GDA not know of anyone ?...oh, and if you're going to the trouble of a full rework...why not change colours ??!!

Presenting the Pink Beast Lol.

Seriously though. I think that Rawsons VW body shop in Tonbridge is supposed to be excellent although not the cheapest.

Spoke to GDA on Tuesday and they now sub out paintwork as they haven't got the time to do it.

Nathan..

barge

are you talkinga quick blow over [crap] or a full bare metal respray ?

the cost between them is huge.

Hey Sharkus, soon somebody will have to carry the peppermint torch on behalf of muppets everywhere, if you know what i mean

ScoobyK

Nathan, my point exact....GDA sub out painting, so surely they only sub to people they trust to do a good job ?? Worth asking them but not sure about Pink !!

Will ask GDA who they use, as will be down there later today.

It's not gonna be for a while, but as you know the bonnet is fcuked, so that'd need a spray when I get a replacement, plus there's a nasty scratch on the passenger door, the bumper is scratched as well. So basically want a respray that will handle all that.

Doubt I'll actually do it, but who knows!

Post up if you get a price for a full respray. Would be interesting to see

Get some spray cans and do it yourself Markus..

Have you seen the Sidcup laps website?!



Surely it will just be cheaper to get the offending panels resprayed? they cannot all be dented?

You do have a point.

The rear passenger door has a big keying mark on it. The bonnet is trashed, so need a new one, bumper looks crap. Scratches on rear hatch and also scrathes on rear bumper, plus marks where stickers were badly removed (not by me) Some odd marks on roof as well.

So not all panels are dented, but even if I had all the bits sprayed at the same time, it'd probably make more sense to get the whole car resprayed, so it would match better.


As for color change. hmmm, peppermint beast does sound good, but I think that crush, you deserve to have a unique car. Purple might be cool though! Nah, I'll stick with black, unless I can get it done in that oh so cool 'swordfish' TVR color, now that WOULD look rather cool.

so contact TVR and ask who does there paint work!!!

then let me know coz i have thought about that myself Gra Tourismo 3 has a lot to answer for!!!!!!!
