    Soooo......

    How much is a decent respray then?

    Has anyone ever had one? lol

    I saw lots of mint resprays at FCS - there was a white 5 turbo that looked awesome....

    And in the North West?

    Might just have to have the arches done first and worry about the little bits and bobs another year

    Well it's the same people I mentioned in that thread yes. I'm going to go and look at Irish Nut's car on saturday to see the work for myself. He had a new rear 1/4 and a few other bits done so should give a good indication.

    Think everyone knows the story with my old valver - maybe not Bill might be a bit before your time old son, but imagine smokeys but worse and alot more cost - I had to scrap the car (although i've heard on the grapevine some fool still runs it!).

    It wasn't red it was pink..


    Now I have my Willy finally after a decade of "want one" "want one" "want one" theres no way in hell i'm letting anything bad happen to the bugger!!

    If I have to pay £500-600 just for rear arches so be it, roof so be it, doors etc etc...

    Just want it nice!

    Theres a guy about 5 miles away from me (i'm from near Barnsley) that did a full respray on my mates mini for £250, and that included the prep work. Its in shiny black and it is seriously immaculate. Only had to polish it with normal black polish after it had dried properly.

    He is very cheap though as he does it as a side from his actual job (hes a car painter for direct line). I would say at a normal bodyshop you'd be looking at close to £3000 to repair both arches, prep the car and spray it.

    I reckon i'll use him for my respray. I can sort the bodywork out myself but I haven't got a garage to use at the minute.

    I'd say for a top notch decent job ur lookin at bout £800.... i was quoted £1000 with the work i wanted done... and about £1200 if i wanted metal flake on my clio!

    But then again if ur goin for a colour change.... it'll be more cause they have to do inside doors, under bonnet etc!
