i got mine done at VW bodyshop and it was £300+VAT - They did a very nice job
they need to do something called "wet-priming" so its not just a standard stray job. i didn't want to risk the paint flaking off the surface by going with the cheapest place i could find.

That's a pretty good price for a VW bodyshop i think Rollini. I looked at buying a candy white gti before i eventually bought mine. Went to VW in Northallerton and said i wouldnt buy it unless they coded the bumpers. They also said that it would be wet-primed and they would happily do that for me for £550+VAT. As if that was doing me a favour! Anyway you can see that i bought a black one from a different stealer and told them where to go!

Yeah definately dont go with the cheapest quote, I had a spoiler sprayed on my 2006 Astra Sporthatch and it began to peel after a matter of 2 months. Its no longer mine now so im happy as Larry with my GTI :smiley:
Before you do get it done make sure they have a good reputation and know what they are talking about.
