Getting my bonnet repsrayed and the person doing it for me has said £100 for everything including - prep, prime, paint, lacquer,
This also includes all the material!

I'm a sprayer..

Thats a good price for what its worth. Just depends on how good of a sprayer he is... Personally if i didn't know how to spray i would get it done for £100 without a doubt but i could spray it myself for about 20 lol

Thats a fair price tbh.
Do you know the person spraying it? If not ask to see samples of their work first :y:

100 isn't a bad price if its a good job.

I paid £200 per bumper once.

all depends on who the painter is and where they work etc,

prices depend on the peoples reputation sometimes, for example on ed38.com everyone goes to the same painters and they charge alot more than other painters

£100 is good price for bonnet, prices for bonnet can vary from £80-150ish

prices for paint work vary depending on where you are in country, reputation of the painter, wether its a big bodyshop or small one etc

My local body shop is roughly £100 per panel so sounds about right.

I was quoted £80 when I was looking to get one sprayed. So £100 can't be far off.

In my experience it's generally cheaper & easier to buy a whole 'new' bonnet of a car someone's breaking.. Coming from someone who's been through 4 bonnets now, somehow.

fibreglass bonnets require more prep work than a metal bonnet so £100 is a good price

100 gbp for spraying fibre glas is not that bad.
my local paintshop told me 130 for normal bonet
and in the end i got one from scrap for 10 gbp :)
