Just wondered How much a full bonet respray would cost. Anybody ever had this done ? would the colour match be perfect ? Can anyone be reccomended in the Sheffield area.

Thanx in advance

Das I know a guy in retford who does bodywork as his main thing. Ive had plenty of bangs and knocks with my car and ive never had a bad word to say about his work or him. His garage is always packed out with classic cars and ferrari's having 1 job or another done to them.

the guy isnt the cheapest but you can be sure of a 1st class job. I assure you of that. You wont be telling the difference

Das did you ever get a quote for a full bonnet spray?
My bonnet is absolutely atrocious. Can't believe that is only after 5 months!!

had a quote for 290 to be honest a good detailer will sort it for you. my valeter polished out all the scratches on mine so i would try that first. but if your bonet looks like someone has shot it with a AK47 then I would have a respray.

Mine is way past the detailing stage  :cry:
It is right through to the bare metal in literally 100 or more different places although there is only a handful that are relatively big.
