recommended bodyshop in North West?

Recommended Posts

someone recommended a local place for priming, spraying & fitting my new Do Luck bumper

 

i left it with them a couple of weeks ago & chased him up today to find that he had done nothing with it so far

 

he reckons it will be the end of next week now when he calls to say it's ready for fitting but if he hasn't done anything with it by then then i'm gonna look for somewhere else

 

just wondered if anyone could recommend anywhere, Supra friendly ;)

 

cheers,

 

Wes

Where abouts in the North West are you hun?

 

There is a place local to us that sprayed ours for us, we are in North Wales ;)

 

Not cheap but really good.

thanks Tina, i'm in St Annes, next door to Blackpool. what kind of price was it? was it just the bumper they did for you too? the convenience of having somewhere here meant i had no probs dropping it off for priming & spraying and then the car only had to go in for a day to be fitted. but, i think i'm in Prestatyn in about 8 weeks time for a long weekend, if i can put it off till then and they could do a saturday or something, is that anywhere near?

 

i hate you lol ... your not allowed to make your car any nicer damn it!

hey mate,

 

theres a place i use in Bolton, theyre the approved sprayer for the local Audi garage. theyve always got TVR's, mercs and the like in there. I (thankfully) havent had to use them on the Supe as yet but they did some very impressive work on my previous car, a civic coupe. The colour was the biggest bastard to match, no one could do it untill i tried these guys. the match was spot on and the finish was perfect!! not a single drip / orange peel-y bit! even did me a good deal cos i took the bumpers off myself and paid cash. ill send you the details if you want matey.

cheers anyway Rob, but i'll probably stick with waiting for this guy unless i can find someone nearby who has definitely done Supras before. it doesn't look like too much hassle removing and refitting the bumper but i don't want to do it myself :sos:

 

appreciate the offer though :respekt:

Me to as my normal guy for bodyshop work is excellent and cheap but always really really busy!

 

On a slightly different note have you guys found any local tuning garages in the northwest which are good with supes, well bolton / wigan / preston area? Cheers :)
