full respray costs/recommendations?
full respray costs/recommendations?
As some of you will probably know from the problems i've had with mine being vandalised my bodywork isn't in the greatest shape, i'm planning on getting a respray and instead of having odd panels done and not having a true match i'm thinking a full respray is the way to go.
I have some colours in mind but does anyone have any recommendations on places/people to go to or ideas on a rough cost?

I would go by recommendation of someone local maybe some one your main dealer uses.
I have a good garage here in Essex that very good, let me know if yu want there details.
Good hunting
Dan if your planning on changing your colour then you are talking big money for a good job maybe £2500 You can of course get the car done the same colour as it is and have a nice finish for between £750 - £1500

£750 is a decent price for respray in the same colour

07-07-2016, 01:07 AM #3hmm well I was hoping for a colour change in Subaru WR1 blue but can't see it making economical sense in spending 2-3k on a spray if i'm not going to keep the car for ever and as that's nearly the value of the car lol.

You could always have it black again but with a pearl or a different colour metallic flake added to the paint?

Will you be having the engine bay sprayed too Dan if you change the colour? i always think it looks odd having a different colour engine bay?

The main reason for the want of a colour change is the black is just a nightmare to keep free of watermarks/hair line scratches etc etc etc as i'm sure you are aware :p If I don't get a full spray then it's going to be a touch up on the roof and then drivers door/rear os door and rear os quarter resprays

07-07-2016, 01:43 AM #8If I get a colour change then yeah it will be a engine bay spray too, but if I get a colour change this will be under the presumption that there will be a big lump going into the engine bay also

it all depends on how much I want to keep the Lex and do something crazy with it but unfortunately I'm unable to afford to cars so can't really have 1 off the road whilst having extensive work done.as much as it pains me i've been looking at semi-sensible saloons/cpupes with good power as standard mainly the Vauxhall VXR8 (and get a wortec charger) or BMW e46 M3's
