Bodyshop

[MatthewR]

Anyone know of a good body shop in the NW? I don't mind traveling if the work is good.

Im looking at getting a 172 rear bumper re-sprayed, anyone know a rough price they have previously paid?

Might be a treck out for you but had the vee front end done ( stone chips ) well known for quality work but not the cheapest around.

 

[MatthewR]

Cheers Russo, its only 30 mins away and would prefer to get it done somewhere which i have had recommendations from.

I have just spoken to them and sent an email over now.

Any more ideas people?

Get in touch with Phil down at Shinearama, they're not set up yet with their spray booth, but they're hoping to be pretty soon.

Naturally I can't vouch for their work, nor can I say how much they would charge, but as detailers, I would expect them to have a keen eye for colour and finish.

 

[MatthewR]

Cheers Eddie.. I seem to remember them saying something about setting up a spray booth.

SP automotive, they are really good I have 1st hand knowledge of this, also really good price wise too.

 

[MatthewR]

Cheers, ill have a look into them aswel then.

Ive sent Foxx a pm on DW and will give them a ring later.

Im going down to Shinearama on saturday to get a quote from phill.

Foxx has advised me that they will be setting the spray booth up on the 26/11 and will be fully running by the end of that week if anyone is interested.
