    makes 2 of us, but I'm taking it as is...Thinking of either staying basic green or changing to a different green like on the VE commos

    My VR cost $3750. Closed door respray, which doesn't include inside the doors, boot or bonnet. I'm in SA though.

    Damn thats expensive. How long did they have your car for Nick? Assume that was just drive in as is, and let them do the whole lot?

    Thats with fitting and spraying the SS kit, welding badge holes, fix roof, pillar and tail light panel dents. Removing and welding up spoiler holes and fixing all the low spots in the boot created by it also. They had it for about 4 weeks I think. Yeah just drive in and drive out. Another place (can't remember where it was) wanted a little over $4k, probably didn't want to do the job.

    I was expecting, and afraid that's how much it may cost...Will just keep mine the way it is for now, or just get a re-coat spray on the main areas where paint is fading and coming off...
