Default Full respray quotes...

Hi guys i have an RB5 WRsport that needs only a little tidy up. (spraying and rust treatment)

I need my roof doing and when i start looking over the car its getting to the point where i may as well have a full respray..

I got quoted £2500 for all striped glass out, dents sorted....

has anyone had a quote for the same work?

Is this price to much or a reasonable price?

Cheers guys.

the thing with getting things painted is that you pay is what you get...
if you want it to look good the quote above sounds about right if you get any cheaper
it probaly wont be so good...

I was expecting a couple of grand when I get a quote for mine so sounds quit reasonable. You probably could get it cheaper, but with painting you really do get what you pay for

i'd say that's a fair price, but you definately get what you pay for when it comes to paint.........

Sounds a good price but make sure you use a reputable company with proof of everything I used a backstreet fella the job took a lot longer than promised cost a lot more and the job was a lot less satisfactory then promised.
12 months on now needing another respray and lost out on 2500 pound

Yeah its a good price, mine should've been £1500 going from black to white but due to being mates with the sprayer helped a lot

Would've cost £80 ish for glass out but the seals flooded down just fine and you can't even notice
