Depends what sort of job you want doing, If you want a pukka job with all window trims etc removed and a bare shell respray etc properly done you can expect to pay £2,5k+. You can also get it done for around £1k but I wouldnt expect the job to be top notch. You pay for what you get, and there is no sutch thing as a cheap respray.


p.s White on black looks nice, But liking Cool grey(RB5 colour) with anthercite rims at the moment!!!

You just cant beat the white & black combo.

Heres a pic of my old bugeye.



I've now gone for Black wheels on my Cool Grey classic STI type R which is in for a full body respray the now, but it aint costing me anything as the guy owns me a favour but if i was paying it would of been around the 2.5k-3k.

If you're in the Northwest - then Jake (cuprajake on here) will probably be pleased to give you a quote - when I last heard he would have been much cheaper than the quotes above and they have full modern paintshop facilities. He has posted some threads of his work online...
Panelcare website - http://www.panelcare.co.uk/

I was looking at getting mine done 'cheap as poss' and found a local painter who would do the work if we did most of the stripping and masking for £800 and about £150 for the paint...

Good luck

If you go with white, Audi and FOrd do the best shaeds of white IMHO. If you want something a little different looking Ford do a white with a blue tinge, almost a pearl to it, have seen a Kuga in that colour, looked really good.

Thanks for the advice guys, I have a friend with a Focus ST in White, it does look nice i must say.

I havent a car to paint as such, its just that all cars ive been looking at in my current price range all seem a little rough, thus the paint jobbie idea.
