Price for the car was v.good, price from the bodyshop suggests to me that you should look around, however, you get what you pay for, so if they wanted that much that would say it would have to be a top job, i still think you could get the kit sprayed etc. elsewhere, for less than that though, unless you're stating you wanted the whole car respraying

Also i suppose it depends on how much rust needs sorting etc.

I would say, get the work done and then just get the car mopped. It don't look bad enough for a respray IMO.


Lovely car, loving it
