Body shop recommendations North London/Herts
« on: March 13, 2015, 04:37:10 am »
Hi all I am contemplating changing the lower part of my rear bumper, I'm getting rather tired of the rather dull black section.

Hence I am thinking about adding a R32 style rear skirt minus the exhaust cut out & some side skirts whilst I am at it. Naturally these parts will require spraying, so if anyone can recommend a decent body shop it would be appreciated.
Cheers Rob

VW part numbers can be found in my project log, page 1, for the R32 conversion. Equally there's a few ED30 bumpers for sale on eBay often enough.

Body shop wise, there's Legends Vehicle Specialists in Kent who are really good, but I used the VW body shop in Chalfont, they did a good job spraying my bumper for me.

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!
