I am looking for anyone who can recommend a good car painter in the South Essex area.
I want to get the side skirts etc. colour coded on a classic scoob MY99 and look at the possibility of hiding/fixing some nasty stone chips on the bonnet.
Any ideas?
Any indication of what sort of cost I would/should be looking at for the colour coding etc. would be nice too
Thanks in advance for any help.

Why dont you have a go at colour coding the skirts yourself.
I did my own about 6 months ago and it wasnt a difficult job.
The skirts are only bolted on underneath.
Once they are off, give them a real good wash down and then wipe
them down with thinners to get off the last of any old polish.
Give them a rub down with wet and dry to give a key.
Give loads of fine coats of plastic primer.
Then give loads of coats of your top coat
You can get the paint made up at your local halfords.
Its worth a go.
You have got nothing to loose.
And when you look at the finished job, you can think I did that

hmmm...interesting thought.
I haven't tried alot of automotive parts painting....not sure I trust myself to not f**k it up.
Thanks for the idea though....if I get really desperate I might give it a go.
