Stratty Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 As I am going to be fitting a new bumper, overfenders and rear wing, I thought it would be a good idea to get the whole car resprayed at the same time. Due to the fact that we only have a couple of decent bodyshops in Jersey, I am limited for choice. Anyway, I went to get a quote from one of them and they told me it would cost £2,300 and that was just for the respray and didn't include the fitting of the new bits. I thought this was excessive so thought it might be better if I pay for the car to go on the boat and get it done in the UK. Can someone give me a 'rough' idea what you pay for a spray job in the UK. I am only doing the car in the same colour so I would have thought this would keep the price down. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I think if that is a standard colour, then the price is about right. Though I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 £2300 sounds reasonable if they are doing a proper job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prosty Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I have a receipt from when my car was sprayed in germany. cost 1700 eur, not sure whether it includes the labour before the paint was sprayed. Not bad either way, the car looks stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been looking around for a while for a respray and on average its about £2500. Could try Kode Performance in Kent, thats where i ended up going and im very happy with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 5 Mile Road on the west of the island is a good fast road. Just gotta keep away for the fuzz Thanks for the replies guys. It seems that it isn't such a bad price.
