Id estimate £80 - 100 each side.

 

[Essex_Lad]

got a quote off a bloke for £200 if he can do a blow over instead of a respray

blow overs ne good or do they jus look pants?

 

[M.B.]

blow overs are pants, i know a couple of painters who wont even bother with em

 

[Essex_Lad]

they noticable?

 

[Phil 99]

whats a blow over?

 

[Essex_Lad]

basically its jus a coat of paint over the original i believe, instead of removing the old paint prepn it and full respray

 

[M.B.]

the couple id seen done looked great at first, but after a couple of weeks it just looked dull. I suppose it depends on the painter and the condition of the car really.

 

[Fatherted]

you could do a blow over on your car, just depends on 2 things.......the colour of your car & how good the body shop is at matching paint

if its a metalic paint or somthing nasty to match...like red then id have the whole panel painted.............if the bodyshop is crap at matching............id have the whole panel painted !

there shouldnt really be much difference in price between the 2 really......its the same amount of work...........just use a bit more paint !

 

[Essex_Lad]

well mines White so matchin aint a problem really and half my cars resprayed ne way coz of new parts so should be fine

i just bin up 2 bodystyling4u near me dis aftanoon nd he sed dat it would cost bout 300 quid each side all in, cz of the work there is 2 do! but da boot will only cost 150 all in!

 

[Essex_Lad]

£600!!! not a chance

the boot cost me £100 for smoothing and opening mechanism then £120 to get sprayed so £150 is a good price
