I just paid 200 to have both my driver side panels resprayed, and they've done a cracking job.

Also been quoted 350 for whole rear bumper/diffuser (the black plastic part) and side skirts to be resprayed.

If that gives you a guideline

I was quoted £750 for a full front end respray on my TR ed30.

I live in London though, prices tend to be inflated!

That's nuts,

We are obviously in the wrong profession. seems they charge what they want. that mark on the side of the door will probably buff out.

I'd have a look at this site, find the nearest VAG approved bodyshop, and just email over asking for some quotes:

For my other car, an RS4, have been quoted £900 upwards for full front end resprays.

Always a huge spectrum of prices.

I need to get both rear 1/4 done. Some rust coming through and someone before has tackled them in a not so great manner.

Getting quotes next week so will update this thread.
