Just got quoted 400 for full colour coding of the front and rear bumpers, arches and handles. What do you guys think, good ro bad? It's from Lake Autos near Reading, which are Vauxhall reccomended.

What did that look like at a price that cheap?

Since I started this thread I've been buying all the bits I need and when I pick up my GSi bumper on tuesday I'll have everything ready to take to one of three bodyshops to get it all done.
Front bumper, door handles, wing mirrors, then arches and rear bumper smoothed and painted!
Will let you know how it goes and how much I pay!
Have been trying to get hold of Ed from here though, he gave me a really good quote a while back but now that I have all the bits and all the money waiting I can't get hold of him!

Some places are terrible!
I've had a quote from someone local(ish) and they've quoted me 430 for what I want. Seems about reasonable to me! I need to get a newer quote from Ed though as his was better than theirs last time when I was just inquiring!

£400 is about average, but you pay for what you get,
i payed about £600, for front and back bumper, arches, skirts and alot of smoothing of front and back bumper
oh, and they never charged me for spraying the morettes

They do look good but are a fair distance from Hampshire. Good to see the price range though, cheers.
Just got a quote from someone for £477 for handles (x4), arches, front and rear bumper, mirrors, and a light tint over the lights. Sounds just a little above average but I've not seen their work yet.
