Digger who is based opposite weatherspoons in Maindee behind the bathroom shop (just by the lights)....253095

I had an argument with him, and his paint isnt perfect, but good for what he charges.

Doubt you will find cheaper locally unless you have someone who will do it at mates rates.

agreed with Joe, Ian (digger), motor body repairs have good prices, had mine done and i was happy with the overall finished item. apart from a little bit of laquer wearing of on the rear bumper:thumbs:

i take it you going for a full spray nitros?

[nitros]

just getting the front bumper and the back boot spoiler at present but when i get the front and rear wings and side skirts bonnet then it will be having a full spray then :D

[The_BULK]

i would say your better of leaving it until you have the whole car done :nod:

that way all the paint will match :thumbs:

Hi Joe

They did some extensive panel beating on the rear quarter, made me a new passenger side sill, de-badged the front bonnet, fitted new passenger door (changing all the motor, door card etc over from the old door), did various other bits and pieces that needed doing as a result of the accident and resprayed bonnet, door, rear quarter, rear bumper, passenger sill.

Cost me around 1.5k which may sound a bit much, but the work they did was excellent and you would not know it had been damaged, paint matched perfectly, was blended in with no tell tale signs etc.

The only thing they didn't do was to plastic weld the front bumper as it was in such a mess that they couldn't guarantee the results. As it was their reputation on the line they said they would rather not do it than do a less than perfect job, which I thought was fair enough. I know I am a fussy cow when it comes to the car and wouldn't have been happy with anything less than perfect, so thought thier honesty was good. They did offer to do me a good deal on the respray though when I get a new front bumper.

[nitros]

with all these places now in mind and the fact the front wings are on there way as are the new side skirts mine aint that far from being done now just back wings and back bumper, bonnet i aint worried about as its going to be a carbon one so no spraying needed :D.

will have to start a project page for you all to look and prob mock me lol
