Dusty Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hey guys got a few chips all over the car very small but can see it's going to start rusting anytime soon, was wondering how much a full respray in the same colour cost? CheersDusty Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neilsmith Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 about £800-1000 would be a good price but you could pay upto £1500. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Burns9213 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) It should be around 1200 for a full respray if anyone says any more then there having your pants down ;-) (I'm a painter ) Edited January 15, 2014 by Burns9213 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris_GlanzaV98 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I was quoted 1500 & 1800 for a full spray, this included fitting new wings a bonnet also You get what you pay for imo and paint is something im very picky about so i would rather have it done right first time Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AndyH Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Just had my starlet quoted for a respray having the full glanza kit fitted and sprayed for £1500. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris_GlanzaV98 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 1500 is a good price for a perfect job i would say Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreaseMonkey Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Or you could try the following guide http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=20127 off Detailing world for a cheaper but possibly time consuming option. I've done this on stonechips and scratches on my car and has done the job quite well, or at least made the stonechips/ scratches easier on the eye. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie5414 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Can get it dome around 5-600 With rattle cans yeah Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hawwy Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I had mine done for that much may be some pics on here still had it ibis white it was mint so i dont know where the fuck u got rattle cans from lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kavan-k Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 If you do the prep yourself you could knock a few quid off buddy. I will be getting mine done soon in a different colour and I will be doing as much prep as I can. Be alot cheaper if the car just needs primed and painted! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would I beable to get away with doin most of the prep with all panels and doors still fitted?Cheers Dusty Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Murphy177 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Haha 500 dreamers I work in a body shop and you wouldn't just paint it if you wanted it doing properly get rid of all the chips and dings then spray properly looking at £1500+ this is a proper job though anything less is probably a bad job.

Will definitely save you money! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fordie_glanzaV Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Agreeed with murphy and also being a painter in body shop its never a case of just painting. Prep is the most important thing to a paint jobUnless uv had experience, If i was u id save your pennies and let the body shop do everything.I hate painting ontop of other peoples prep.Paint wont cover poor prep and ull b unhappy if its not how u want it and u wont have a leg to stand on if u take it back and complain that its not how u wanted.As i said above going rate down my way is 1500+ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan-11 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Yeah my work wont touch anything that someone else has prepped, you'd b £1500+ from my work aswell! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jordan walker Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 I got quoted 1500 and 1600 from two reputable painters near me (they have both knocked out some pretty naughty show cars) On another end of the scale my friend prepped his civic coupe himself and had it painted off a completely different painter near me for 300 and it is the worst paint I have ever seen fish eyes and runs everywhere and after about 6 months on some parts of the car the paint actualy started to crack and come off in places! I recently sprayed my interior my self with a a gun (first time using a gun thought may aswell try) and it was 100% better than the paint on my friends civic! so like everyone has said its best to pay mega bucks for paint or not at all because although you think these 300 and 500 pound jobbys are great value and they cant be that bad... they can haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skimmy237 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 I'm a painter myself and in my body shop is £1500 minimum for a blow over of the same colour and tbh if I was getting my car done and wanting the colour changed and not doing it myself I would pay 2k plus as you get what you pay for ! But obv I would just do it myself Quote Link to post Share on other sites
