Approximate cost of spraying?

[AhmedRSi]

Need the following done (depending on funds, might not get it all done)

- Spoiler/bootlid resprayed in a different colour
- Colour code bumpers/side strips/ door handles

How much should i be looking at for a decent job?

Might even DIY it.

For my cup spoiler I paid £100.
Was quoted £100 for the 4 parts of the side bumper strips!
handles shouldn't be too much, easy enough to do yourself though!
rear and front bumper strips, again prob around £100.

good luck

So were probably looking at about £300 for a decent quote?

If you prep the item's first then it will be cheaper, as thats what costs more to do.

 

[AhmedRSi]

What do you mean by 'prep'? Strip them off the car etc? or primer it all up?

I could easily strip down the panels I want painted guess that could bring the price down a bit?

 

[kevin.s]

prep means the sanding bit before the painting but its not really advised if you dont know how to do it as if you send it to a body shop as a "self prep job" and the prep is crap, you cant blame the body shop for it if there are a load of scratches in it when its done.

 

[AhmedRSi]

Do not know. Will not try in that case

to make things cheaper, take everything off the car yourself.
