chrisrigpig Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Guy's Just had a quote for £3800 for a restoration/paint job, they will replace £900 worth of plastic and trim, glass out and all new seals and badges, aerials removed and filled and treat any/all rust (not much there) They claim to be the best paint / body shop for miles around and work for all local BMW franchises among others. I love my Supra but I only paid £5k for her and with this paint job the total spend over 3 years will come to close to £12k, my question is:- Is she worth it?

Swampy442 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 £3800 isnt too bad a quote, just see a sample of their work first, nothing more frustrating than getting a full paint job, not being happy with it, then having to keep going back again and again (been there, done that!)
