i'm thinking of getting a respray in the spring...

what sort of money am i likely to save if i remove all of the stim and screens myself? hence allowing me to avoid all chances of the dreaded overspray...

aoso, opinions on a white respray (it's white at the moment) but with a pearl laquer flip? chavvy or subtle differently cool?

hi mate, i reckon for a decent job done you would be looking at around the Ԛ£1500 mark. you get what you pay for and a cheap job is usually a cheap finish. not sure about the pearl laquer flip, thats more a jap thing, not sure if it would suit an old e30. but its your car so go for it if thats what you like :D
