what to do

Front and rear bumper need respraying and also boot (laquer peel and knakerd paint work)
So does a small part of the door meaning im going to most likely have to get the full door painted.
the way i see it. thats going to cost me a few hundred. might aswell get the full car resprayed (not bare metal respray) for around 700ish.
whats your thoughts. do i get bumpers door and boot done and risk not having a perfect match or get the whole car done
also anyone know anyone who does painting for cheep. preferably up north. nearer to darlington/middlesbrough better.

for a full respray anything decent, will start at 2k..
id be very very worried if it was much less, unless you dad/best mate/ uncle etc is carrying out said work

External only will cost a grand at least so 700 is cheap!

easy to find someone to spray your car for £700 might want to poke your eyes out before looking it when it's "finished" tho

Yeah, you get what you pay for with paint.
Your not paying very much, therefore don't expect very much afterwards. I'd find somewhere that will show you examples of their work and get the bits done there, you'll regret getting a cheap job.

no not bare metal. that quote is just going off what my mate had his leon done for, and that was a reasonable job...however he said that when he got his done the garage had just opend up so were doing it a little cheeper just to get money in so im proberbly looking more at the 1k side of things.
