Front end respray...

Car  ST
I want to have both front wings, bonnet and bumper sprayed.

What sort of money am i looking at?

Cheers, Alan.
 
i went to a 'proper' bodyshop. who wanted £180 for just the bonnet. so it could literally be anything from £250-£750 lol
 
Yeah i was thinking around £800..

Uh..

Pics to follow of the damage.

The quote I got was from a guy who works as a mechanic/sprayer in a ford garage through the day and also does it on the side in the evenings, He is s**t hot! most people go to him when needing a job being done on there cars, I just need to get rid of the stone chips :)

I know its only a car but its so annoying that people can do things like this in car parks and the likes and not have the decency to leave a note or anything..

looking at those pics, why do you need the bonnet and other wing sprayed?

you dont even need the whole bumper and wing painted, any decent bodyshop could blow that in, maybe try one of the mobile companies, i bet you could get it done for around a ton.
 
I did indeed Ben...

I'm anal so i'll prob end up having the it all done anyway...we shall see tho..

Goin round a few spray shops tomorrow for prices..
 
trying to remember what i paid for mine done think i paid around 500 ish all in but i had wings both bumpers bonnet and skirts done
 
That seems a fair price indeed matey...

So i'd prob be lookin at around £400 as i dont need my skirts doing??

If i can jus have the wing and bumper fixed to good as new standard i will but as i was going to have the bumper and bonnet done in a few weeks i think i'd be silly not to get it all done at the same time??

Alan.
 
i paid 200 for my bonnet at a top notch sprayers

with it being racing blue and a flat colour i didnt need to get the wings blended :)

i paid around 175 to get my bumper sprayed when i replaced that last year as well

i would say that a good job will cost 500ish?!

especially if you want a good match on the black gold as that wont be the easiest paint to mix and match

you get what you pay for tho matey so i wouldnt skimp on a few quid if it means settling for a half arsed job

they'll have to blend into the doors mate, c**t to match it perfectly apparently, i'd be paying £600-£800 (the vee needs doing on the same pannels)
 
blend into the doors?

only damage on the wing is near the bumper, so there wont be any paint whatsoever on the 2nd half of the wing (towards the door), itll just be laquer. if you paint the door too, itll just be laquered as painting the entire wing then painting half of a door for colour match, well you might aswell go into the rear quarter too for the colour match there.. you'll be giving it a full respray, roof n all, for a scrape on the wing?

only the wing needs doin and blow into the bumper and whatever work you wanted doin anyway, doors dont need touching.
