Splitter respray.
« on: June 19, 2015, 12:18:55 pm »
Being a bit of a mong I've managed to scrape the corner of my splitter on a kerb.

I'm gunna get it resprayed so thought I may aswell get the bonnet and bumper done to remove stonechips.

How much should I be looking at?

Thanks

Its more than the cost thats important. You need to see what paintshops can do get local recommendations (im in cumbria) etc  You need to get a TOP result   £300 for orange peel from one painter or £400 for a Quality fuinish. Not had the bonnet painted yet but had the wings done last year and they got it bang on £100 each

I know mate, I've posted on vagcars.co.uk for reccomemdations as its a North East forum.
Just trying to get an idea of what price I'll be looking at rather than going in blind.
