colour coding bump strips, how much?

[samg1988]

just a quick question. how much would the above be roughly on a dynamique?

I did this last week and spent £20 on paint...its alot cheaper to do it yourself than taking it to a bodyshop and its not that difficult

 

[howie p]

try it yourself, then if u still dont like it spend the money on a bodyshop, they wont turn u away just because u tried first. ^ £20 max

 

[samg1988]

its not my car though its my girlfriends, and im not often round at hers. ill give it a try tho. im doing my own wingmirrors first so thatll be practice

 

[Renault_Boy01]

it would have only been £15 but i made a smal mistake
and needed another layer

could somone list what you need to do this and where to get it? many thanks

various grades of wet and dry paper
1 can of plastic primer
1 can of Renault Colour PAint
1 can of laquer

all is avalable from halfords and will cost about £20 that is only if you make no mistakes of course

i was quoted £170 at a bodyshop i no in wales for colour coding on the following:

1. Front Bumper
2. Rear Bumper
3. Side bump strips
4. Door Handles
5. Wing mirrors

All in all i think thats a very good price.
