Default Cheap spray shops in the north west?

Any body know of/used any decent spray shops in the NW that dont charge mega bucks? need a spolier, bonnet and sideskirts spraying

Anyone done it themselfs with rattle cans or is that a bad idea?

I would forget doing it out of cans also if you pay cheap you will get a crap job, i got quoted £120 to do door handles, skirts, rear spats, headlamp covers, mirrors as he guy went on and on he wanted to just mask everything up and paint it and blow both full sides in to match the handles obviously i went elsewhere,

i got the car back today and it looks really good everything was removed from the car and painted not masked up, i paid £350
i thinks £350 was reasonable as scooby clinic quoted me £520 + vat this was after they said £350 to start with

Anything plastic takes a couple of days to do, if they give it you back the next day then it wont last and the paint will come off but thats how they do it cheap, costs you more in the long run though, so I get it done right in the first place and dont mind the cost
