Samurai446 Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Just wondering how much people think it should cost for a veilside front bumper, side skirts, mirrors and rear spats to be painted and fitted. Its a pretty good job, only thing is that the skirts and spats are on with black stuff. Not the prettiest of stuff. They guaranteed it would be done for the toyota meet on 1st may but i didnt get it till 4th may. They had it for 3 weeks and they say it took 65 hours to do it. There charging me £1800. Does this seem right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale B Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Sounds a bit rich to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 John ('Dude') did my full respray for less than that. Inc colour change and fitting of new bumper, skirts, spats, debadging, de-ariel'ing Where did you get it done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supragal Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Did you get a quote first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 That sounds very high, I got a few quotes for similar work and the most expensive were around the £1k mark. As Jake says, Dude will fit all your kit and do a full respray for less or the same as you've been charged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keron Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 that sounds very expensive...i would expect all those parts for that price too! it's always best to ask for a quote first really (written quotation is best) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimH Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 very expensive indeed...... my best mate runs a spray shop and I'm sorry but 65hrs curing time would be right.... 1800, bloody hell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai446 Posted May 20, 2005 Author Share Posted May 20, 2005 cheers people. i thought it was rich. This will be argued all the way. Theres not a chance im gonna pay that much. Does the 65 hours sound a bit much as well? I didnt think it could take that long to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
