Spray Painting My Beast

[Holden_Chickie]

Ok I want to get a paint job on the beast, I just really need the bonnet, roof and boot done anyone know roughly how much this would cost??

And do you know wheter it would be cheaper just to buy a new bonnet?? and how much I would be looking at?

[jimbob01]

roughly about $8000 or more

they gave me a quote to do from the wheel rims up over bonnet and back on the other side $300 and 2 days with no car?? that's just to get the bonnet done thou

8000 to do bonnet and boot? Sprayed in gold?

300 is pretty cheap, what kind of quality would you be looking at I guess. I'd keep shopping around, ask as many shops as you can in your local area.

300 is a good price, but for me, thats a price I'd look at and start wondering whether they'd do things half assed or not.

Can do a whole car for around 1000.. Or you can spend 10k on a really good quality job. Paints way too.... Crazy

I'm thinking it was a typo. 800.. Well at least I'm hoping.

smash repairs??

But Im not two sure what to do get the original colour (metallica blue) or go get the whole car painted a totally different colour

[Bax]

Smash repairs/ Panel Beaters.. Same thing.

Well it'll more than likely cost a fair whack more to completely change the colour compared to just doing the bonnet and boot.

Yeah I agree, but i have been speaking bout doing this for a long time now, but have never got around to doing anything, or everytime i go to book beasty it something breaks on it which is more important (to me is a pride thing) I hate my car looking like the local solarium *cries*
