Respray Quote

[darkfibre]

Keen to get my bonnet, bumper and both front wings resprayed due to masses of stone chips.

Is a quote of £600 (inc 5-year paint warranty) too much?

How much should I be looking to pay and can anyone recommend somewhere local at a decent price?

I'm from London...thanks in advance...

Sounds about right £150 per panel is the norm! Can't help with any decent places though i'm afraid

Yes mate sounds about right to me

 

[s4mark]

Where abouts in London are you mate?

SE mate.

my local places want between £50-£80 per panel

 

[darkfibre]

£50-80?! Gimme their number!! Lol

Yeah but consider driving there, leaving car, training whatever back, cost of fuel, etc etc its not worth it as even the hassle & unknown of where car is adds to the price you'd pay.

nope i agree....i meant it in the sense of there are cheaper places but you have to look..... i only use places where i know someone with equal standards to mine has been and has been totally happy with the work - not ideal for the area your in as more condensed

 

[darkfibre]

No...you're both right...not worth the journey up, considering costs, etc...was just seeking advice from others who may have had personal experience with a bodyshop that had high-quality workmanship - I'd trust people's opinions on here over theirs.

Hey There, I am going to get a dent/respray sorted from a place in Hainault. Not far from barking and ilford.

Various people have recommended his work to me and i know some of the cars he has done have been in performance VW and other mags.
