Rough price respray

[agithegreat]

How much roughly for the drivers door resprayed??? I admit it was scratched, so in my genius i tried to patch it up. Now it's worse. Lessons learned!!

So roughly, capsicum red for the whole door.
Also would it be beneficial if i prep it myself too???
Would i save a considerable amount of £???

Thanks guys

Area of about 1sq' as it was litrally scratches, which i then tryied to patch. This pissed me off cus it was more obvious. So i sprayed it. Now it's f*c*ed.
So roughly a foot square. And it doesn't look that bad in pictures, but i'll do you one anyway Give me 5

They don't just show quite how bad it is. It's dull in patches and shinyer than the original paintwork in others.
Thanks Guys

weird angle, youre gonna be going into the wing, unsure about the door, might get away with it.

looking at around £200- £250 for side respray, bit less if you dont need quarter doing

It really is only the door. The entire car was resprayed a couple of months before i bought it so only a year old, the current paintwork is.
I masked off all other parts, and removed bump strips etc... Got some on widow. But since removed that with white spirits.
if you're considering colour matchings of a whole side then ok. £250 sounds good. But could you get a perfect match on just the door? Or as near as be damned?

Also is prepping it myself advantageous???

there aint really anything to prep tbh, no fillerwork, will just be scotch all over and quick da/prime where youve painted, so wont really be advantageous on price

be very careful if you just do door it may show up wings which will have faded over time.
