respray

Hi all, I've just had a car re spray of a solid colour (black) and when I was polishing it the other day, I realised that it clearly doesn't have a clear coat on it since I saw a small amount of paint on the cloth. Is this standard practice for re spraying a solid colour car? I know some...

Getting my bonnet, front bumper and grille re-sprayed to correct some nasty stone chips. I have been quoted £1500 inc VAT and 4 days to complete. Does this seem reasonable? P.S - I am not after the lowest quote as you tend to get what you pay for, just ensuring this is about right. cheers

Hi guys Looking for a place around north London to do a full respray on my clk55,but to be honest the location isn't a problem as long as the quality and the price will be good. So far visited few bodyshop places and they said something from £2.500 to £3000 Is that a normal price for a full...

Thought I would do up my ole 202 as she appears to be mostly a good 'un. Dropped it off in the bodyshop today, and he cracked on with popping off the trims and lights etc. anyway, heres some pics.

I have just purchased a s320cdi on a51 plate and the bodywork has small areas of rust and I was just wondering what sort of cost would I be looking at to sort the problem. Its the usual wings and the bottom of the doors and the bonnet could do with a coat to get rid of the stone chips. the...

Hi Bought the CL500 last week with a view to bringing it up to scratch, not a concourse job, just a smart useable car that we can use at weekends to tour in. Found it locally and it's been cared for but not loved, mechanically it is very good with just a few small issues, everything works as...

Hi all, Quick question. I (very stupidly) decided to do battle with a bollard as I was driving out of Tesco's car park today. Not sure how I did it, but I completely failed to spot it. Result: need minor repairs to both nearside doors and nearside rear wing. Some scratches and a very minor...

Hi! Bought a 2000 230kompressor :), as I needed a Car. Actually wanted something nice too so CLK it is. Otherwise a good ex but the paintwork is not worthy of the lady and has to be addressed at some point , well arches and bonnet front-wings and the rear of the doors -> full respray maybe...

Hi and happy new year to you all first of all! I just need anyone's helpful advice if possible on a situation i've unfortunately found myself in. Yesterday I noticed a small dent and scratch in the paintwork right down to the underlying metal on the bonnet of my brand new C350 :wallbash...
