Rear strut brace paint cost?

[MaddRT]

Hi all

Bought a new rear strut brace, brand new unbranded (fabricated from scratch, but not bespoke..hope that makes sense)

I chose the colour as LY and it was powdercoated & then sent onto me
Unfortunately the paint isn't up to my quality, runs & bits flaked off
Raised this with the seller and he said that I'd have to pay to get it sent back to him & he'd refund me - I don't like this idea much

So I wonder if anyone knows a rough price for this to be reprepped & recoloured. not bothered about it being specifically powdercoated particularly as long as it's all LY and no runs/missing paint

I paid my boyf through paypal & idk how he paid them lol
The seller built the cage for his rally car so they know each other well - especially as his cage saved his life last year when he had a big off

£100-ish I’d imagine.

Liquid yellow is a nause to paint and expensive.

Cheapest way would be to find someone having a liquid yellow car painted and try to get your strut brace done at the same time. Will save you loads.

Thanks, I've deleted my social media due to the scene and its bullying nature so I'd imagine that would be difficult as I have no contacts

No need to delete social media, just avoid groups with loads of t***s in. 👍

Every group has its clowns, I’m just very intolerant of people and take things way too personally. Anyway irrelevant
