A full respray on a saxo? Not worth it in my opinion - it won't add any where near as much to the selling price as what you pay for it - unless its a MINTER.

[Mochachino]

£2000.

[gretsch-drummer]

£2000.

Aye £1500-2000+

[devilsadvocate]

Likely twice what most Saxo's are worth these days.

[gretsch-drummer]

But who cares what the cars worth, why would you do any mods if you were always thinking of selling it.

If you want a respray....get a respray.

Not bothered about it adding value or anything it's for my own personal preference...keeping car for Abit so might aswell...

Just want to know a rough price

Cheers mate...

Been quoted £900 by a mate

[jware92]

Only cost me about £500 to do this full respray myself

Nice finish!!

What equipment did you use?

[Prickle]

Would you not pull the VT kit off and do behind that too? I think i would even though you dont see it.

Full nut and bolt resprays cost a fortune

If your just freshening the same colour up there isn't much point

If. Changing g colour then you should

At the price of a set of clips for the VT kit (if you do break any) Id personally be removing the kit, its not alot of effort and will give a better finish over all.

[jware92]

Its not a vt kit, some shitty fibreglass kit!
Painted it on my drive in a gazebo with a devilbiss gti pro

[gretsch-drummer]

What size compressor? (sorry about the hijack etc Furio)

most definately

but these days ppl dont want to pay for proper services as it all adds time and money

[Mochachino]

If you want a respray....get a respray.

Because you can sell the mods and get your money back!

You cant sell a car for an extra £2000 because it had a respray, or sell the respray on its own.

[Furio-Gaz-Saxo]

Well like I said, to me it's just want to make car look better, so not botherd about selling it on, I know you never get what u put into it....

Just wounded if people thought £900 was pretty cheap?

Where I used to work, as a sprayer.

My boss wouldnt do a FULL re-spray unless the engine was out.

Price of just a blow over was £1000, thats with no door shuts, no eninge bay, just plain simple spray.

[GolfJay]

I'd love to meet the guy thats going to do all that for £900.

I've never met a real cowboy!

[Mochachino]

Mates rates thats about right if they are doing everything. If its just for spraying then its abit pricey.

[Prickle]

I've never met a real cowboy!

You've met Joe Hindle!

[JoeHindle]

you've met joe hindle!

fuuuuuuu!

[f13sta]

you want cowboys then you should meet the bloke who did a lads at work car. was going to do it for £700 but that excluded the boot and roof (wtf) all in all it cost him £800 and for saying it were done in a booth it came back with all bits in the paint and a red rad and engine (haddn't even put some paper infront of rad)

but i go a better fininsh (well my dad did) painting my saxo at home.

all in all i spent less than £400 doing the saxo up that were. paint, tinners, hardener, headgasket, bolts. cambelt kit, water pump. hammerite, stone chip. clips for the vt kit.

allthough i didn't do the roof, drivers 1/4 panel or boot cause the paint was pretty mint (wish i had just dont the whole thing tbf)

but if your mate can't get the stuff on trade/ from work. then £900 isn't bad depending on the out come.

tbf i would have been fucked off if mine came out like the lads at work. but i don't like giving my car for other people to do rarther do it myself then i know whats been done.

take the painting for example. the wings, doors, bonnet have had atleast 6 coats on each in 2pk paint. so is as thick as fook lol.

to this;

http://i1085.photobucket.com/albums/j426/stuart-gray/dom106/DSC01079edit.jpg

for £500, including wheels. Not even mates rates or w.e.

[MiniGibbo]

Who would paint a car yellow, what a bender...

[Prickle]

Was that the door shuts etc too? if so bargain. :D

How?

Decent paint, booth time, masking tape ect cost that alone.

I wont do a respray for less than 1500. All trim is removed and all shuts and backs of panels removed and painted.

Anything less than £1k I would be very sceptical about as you gotta make some money on the job.(even for mates)

Yeah he's also sorting out my n/s front wing as its bent inwards...

I don't know how, he quoted, I jumped on it. Many well known cars on 106owners have been to the same place, Mikol, Parello9's etc etc

[ed-bradley]

A guy local to me does pretty much a Full spray/Colour change for about £800.
Shuts, Engine bay if you remove the engine, Under bonnet etc.

He's good at what he does too.. The price I was quoted was to rectify any small dents aswell. He's doing my next car at Cost price though, as its just a quick blow over in a Matte colour and I said the body work doesn't need to be perfect.

[Gabbastard]

Id totally pay 800 for a good quality all over spray!

[blackie_2k5]

i know too decent blokes

one will do car as is for £600 he supplies

other

i supply paint and flatten it ready he'll put the colour and lacquer on for £100
