RobPhoboS Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Possibly the worst timing for me (as I'm owed a month wages + 20% from dec ), as it looks like the shitty company I'm working for has farted itself to death... But anyway, I dropped the car off at a place to have the front end resprayed (typical stone chips and bird poop damage), door scrape fixed (someone caught my car whilst parking) and spoiler smoothed/resprayed (looked tatty). I did try taking some photo's but I pretty much just ended up with reflections of the sky Hopefully the guy takes some whilst he is working on it, and I'll post up before/afters - and most importantly, I pray a big thumbs up for his work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah 350z Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 If you don't mind me asking how much was it? I am trying to save up for the same thing my car is 2004 and has gathered up her fair share of stone chips and its starting to bug me.

370Ad Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 could work out cheaper..... How far is everyone from TGM in fleet? (Worth a shot?) Pretty close to me. About 30 miles! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I'm a fair distance away but want somebody reputable to do the work, one with the right facilities and experience. They come highly recommended. I'll give them a bell tomorrow and see what they could do for us as a group buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ph 7 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I'm looking to get mine resprayed in the near future...depending on what I get this weekend but certainly sorting something out before lakez. Wasso, if you remember from the meet last year I was going to get a friend of one of our Paint Engineers to do the spray work. I'll let you know the details if you want as I get them.

How soon could you get info, as I want mine done for May. When I speak with TGM, I'll ask for prices on wings, standard bumper, and bonnet.

ewan221 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Be interested to see what sort of prices quoted. I was getting front bumper done along with relocation of number plate for £200 now thinking may as well get whole front end done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
