Can anyone recomend a decent body shop in the West Midlands who may be able to offer a full body respray for under £1000?

Regards

Doubt you'll get a decent respray for under 1k.

I'm getting the bottom-half done on my Touring and none of the decent bodyshops around here quoted less than £1200.
Going by that, a full respray has got to be £1500 minimum.
This is why I no longer drive an E30......

I am looking for a good job, so am not necessarily just looking for the cheapest.

The car is currently a beige, gold colour. I was considering just having it re done in that colour, but to be honest im VERY keen on the dolphin grey colour.

Is there a difference in the amount of work depending on if i keep it the same colour or have a complete new colour?
