View Full Version : Back from the bodyshop...
:?
To find a pretty shoddy job tbh..... the colour match is well crap...front bumper look a lot lighter due to different basecoats or summut oh and apparantly yellow is the most most difficult colour to match :? Did'nt even bother to match it by the looks of things.. :(

Was tempted to put a fuel cell on mine until I found out how much they are. :shock:
Aye I know, was looking at them in the Demon tweeks catalogue today..not one tank under 250 quid... :shock:
The interior looks well sweet, shame about the bumpers......Im dreading sending mine anywhere after yours and strombas troubles.
The fuel sell is the nuts....sick set up...........I want :D

IIRC is't a BTTC fuel system with 1 litre anti swirl pot, Weight put that in back in the day when he owned it. Love the ticking sound it makes too!
Car's looking a lot better inside too Mart!!!

mate why didn't you take it to where i had it sprayed? they would have got it done spot on! Its only L'pool also
It was only a small job and Liverpool is'nt exactly round the corner for me mate or I would have done....just need to get the front bumper re-done should'nt be too much hassle. Wish they could do a good job in the first place though... :roll:
if u dont mind me asking how much it cost mate??
btw that fuel setup is well over £500's worth of setup! the filter alone is about £70, tank £300+, swirl pot about £150, braided hose, pump, etc, etc!
Cost me 350 notes..for both sills (bit of rust and respray) one rear arch, interior spraying and front bumper re-spray....
id get the front done again mate. they should re-do it!!
Aye I'm gonna sort something out with them...most likely get it sorted elsewhere though don't trust them to get it right really....

Think you will find White is the hardest colour to match!
Sounds like they we're just fobbing you off.
