Why not is my opinion.
As long as it's done properly you'd have a close to factory or possibly better than, finish and quality. Not many of them are about are they.

You going to have the interior stripped out, engine out etc to get it sprayed? If so go for it, otherwise don't bother IMO.

So mixed comments if I were to paint I would definitely strip the interior out and do it proply I would go Renault to get the paint code to get exact match before I put it in a booth
thanks for imput I won't rush to conclusion

Personally I wouldn't . Too much expense to get it done properly . I'd either try and source one , not easy i know or just go for another colour . But , at the end of the day it's your choice , your money .

Thanks for the comments not gona rush into it don't wanna end up regreting
doing or not doing it lol I'll keep you updated

What's the respray going to cost you? Add cost of the car plus no doubt some fresh new trim is it really economic?

 

[Bradsclio]

Going to gets prices and let you know

 

[Mar172]

A good respray which includes full strip must be around £2500 plus and then the price of the car say £1500 and then wheels need doing and other bits you maybe already around £5 k

 

[JCC]

You'd be cheaper to just buy a Sunflower one.

 

[Stefan.]

Hold out for one.

Not worth going down the respray road imo.

 

[Fletcher]

I would only respray a car in a colour you couldn't get it in. Not worth the cost hassle otherwise IMO.

 

[Chrisgti6]

Don't scrimp on the respray!

Thats all all I have to contribute!

 

[Bradsclio]

Thanks I had a lot off input from everyone .I appreciate your feedback it's looking like it's not that viable at the moment but sunflower yellow is such a nice colour I'm really in two minds I know it would be expensive but the end result would be great
what about phs 1 in liquid yellow or am I still being silly. Has anyone painted one in liquid yellow? How mad would that look

 

[cat171]

Why not get the car first & go from there?

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

LOL @ spending 3x the cars value on paint.

Brilliant.

As for LY instead of SY .. it's probably the same price on top as it's a silly expensive multi layer paint.

 

[Bradsclio]

Yeah I've just been reading up on it liquid yellow thinks that's out the widow

 

[Dannyeff]

Why don't you buy a clio and wrap it?

 

[celicaturbolly]

If you REALLY want a yellow one - wait for it
