Phone Lemass on 01494 874347 for a quote.
You get what you pay for and at 600 quid i would think that you will be looking to have it done again very shortly after, do it once do it properly, decent materials would cost nearly that alone. ,let alone all the labour thats involved.

Will it be in a spray shop etc? If so and you get a little experience with that sort of thing can't complain really.

the guy who painted mine is second to none to be honest and i dont want to blow my own trumpet but i haven't seen a better paint job on another corsa unless its a wacky euro one but thats just not my taste hahaha. I paid 1500 for inside and out.  I see you in wrexham.. the guy is only in liverpool (kirby)

Yeah aslong as it's in a good booth and the tools and material etc is quality then can't go wrong 2bh.
Had mine done by a friend, all outside resprayed (white) and a black roof and Gsi kit sprayed £750 it's a good job they done considering but the bonnet has peeled (due to it being a modified one and was bad quality anyway) so you get what you paid for, but sametime it depends who and what tools are being used etc.
But bonnets going back to standard anyway as been there since i bought the car and not liked it anyway

That's a decent price for inside & out in fairness

LISTEN TO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I payed about £1500 total to have my whole car resprayed, bodywork done (lots of prep work). It was away for 3 months. I got what I payed for with paint that was ok, but could have been vastly better.
Missy paid £2k for her paintjob, and the difference in the paint is amazing. Its a totally different class.
Ahhhh days of £700 per litre TVR multi flip paints that needed about 2 litres to do a corsa......
Go to a cheap place, and expect to get lots of stone chips easily. Respray paint will never be as strong as the original.

Sounds like you might be better just finding a clean shell and putting your LET in it.
