    Rebadging the 129 post respray

    The 129 will be going into the bodyshop for its respray next month, once the last of the AMG bits arrive from Germany. This thrown us headlong into the highly contentious issue of badging :D The ducktail that Neil has kindly furnished me with is one of the non-embossed ones, so it needs...

    Replacing rusty panels with not rusty panels - rather than respray?

    An odd idea... But I have some rusty panels, and I don't feel like forking out a lot of money on a respray. My thinking might be a tad off, but following from a sort of idea in this thread: http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/bodywork/106111-w208-1999-clk-advice-rust.html I've thought about...

    Paint For Respray

    Hi, I would like to respray my 1997 C class changing from solid white to metalic grey. Please recommend a good brand of metalic paint as I believe the major part of the cost is the labour and not the cost of the paint. Thanks.

    Re-spray advice...

    Hi, I've got a high mileage '00 clk, so it's got quite a few motorway chips, and it's starting to develop some rust and bubbles—the usual things for an ungaraged car of it's age I guess. Anyway, I'm thinking of getting it externally re-sprayed (maybe particular panels, maybe the whole thing)...
