    Default Respraying The Car

    Hey my VH is in desperate need for a re-spray! The paint was fine but when i bought it in January the owner before thought it would be cool to have it matte black and of coarse didn't finish it before i received the car so the whole car is primed and sitting in my garage. I was wondering does anyone know a good place to get it re-sprayed for a good price in the Melbourne area?

    Cost me $300 bucks to respray my VT myself using custom spray packs...
    Come up well but alot of work rubbing back.

    Not many cheap paint jobs out there these days though your looking at about 3-5k no-matter where you go as its a diff colour.
