If u asked for just the wing n bumper like u said above then that's quite expensive.

Who deals in pints of paint? Are you American????

Ins approved means dick. Has no bearing on quality.

When I had my TR GTI I reversed into a car in my dark works car park , marked my bumper - cost me nearly 400 do get the bumper and door mirrors sprayed at my local Mitsubishi garage - and after that they didnt match at all - so when it went in to get the wings changed under warranty I got VW to spray them again - the match was better but still not right , I couldnt stand seeing the mismatch in paint colours so I traded the 05 car in for a Candy White 58 plater. Red is a right bassa to match :(

Yikes all kicked off in here.

Near me i got quoted £400 to paint a bumper and £60 a wing to blend in.

But i know someone up north who paid £800 for a paint job. but havent seen how good it is!
