have a go yourself, worse thing to happen is you muck it up and you then just take it to a bodyshop.


i think its around the 200 pound mark :S

use plastic primer for flexable plastic.

before i had only sprayed a set of rims, i made a few mistakes but all you have to do then is lightly sand down that layer and then try again

cost me about 50 quid to do the side and back strips, its obviously not bodyshop standard but i think it is good enough !

Shame your not a bit closer to me as i would do it for not alot of money.

[rs250nut]

To be fair and this is coming from a pro you cannot go wrong, if it goes tits up rub it and paint it again.

prices can vary s**t loads! my local bodyshops either said they wouldnt do it or quoted £400+

Did you go to a main dealer bodyshop because these will rip you a treat?
If the bodyshop was a smaller one and they quoted you £400 plus then they were probabley busy and did not need the work. Although £400 is taking the piss even for spoiler,door mouldings,door handles,mirrors.

that was 18months maybe even 2 years ago across 4 different independants. 1 said they wouldnt do it one said £400 and the others were all more than that. Bodyshops by me dont like doing it, or the one that did like doing them was a proper chav place that went bust because they ripped everyone off (so people didnt go) unless you knew them and then they did it at cost (so only those people went)

 

[rs250nut]

I would love to be able to charge some one £400 for that,although I dont think I could have the front to do so.
