overpriced. 100 quid for me to paint arches and front and rear bumpers, on a standard corsa sport

Munchie, I got quoted £300 by my local bodyshop too - for front and rear bumper, skirts, arches and roof rack rails.

Sounds like a good deal to me

Munchie - you actually trust Vauxhall to colour code your motor?

Vauxhall in Knebworth did an excellent job repairing my old corsa when it got smashed up. Matched colours perfectly and the finish was excellent.

Round here, Vauxhall dont have there own bodyshop. I think they take theres to a contracted workshop. If they also do this in your area, find out who they are and go direct. Had my front wing sprayed from Vauxhall when i first got my car, totally wrong shade cus it was RED...still shouldnt happen cus its from Vauxhall.

I was quoted £250 for colour coding.
Thats:
Door handles,
Wing Mirrors,
Boot handle,
Arches,
tops of bumpers,
scuttle plate,
top running bars
and the meshing of my grill.

Not too bad a price, could find better.
I am going to be doing the small things like door handles my self though to save some money, gonna sand the arches myself too so it looks nice and smooth.

What i dont understand is how the hell Vauxhall can take your warrenty off you if you decide to spray the car anywhere other than with Vauxhall, surely it doen't affect the car in a manner that would lead to more than a standard expence from vauxhall on a warrenty fixing.
