hi guys

not sure if im posting in the correct forum please advise otherwise, but i am trying to get some qoutes on a full respray for my 91 cab. I live in london, so just wondering if anyone could recommend a bodyshop that is reasonable.

also in your humble opinions how much do you think the going rate is.

thanks

Ozzy

cheap job is around £1k, full propper job upto about £3k (all trim, glass, and exterior fittings removed etc).

I have used Thamesdown windscreens (yes they have a paint booth, all they do it fit windscreens and prep/paint) in the past, my E30 is either going there or another place called redvers garage (my daily driver just been in there for work and an MOT) and they have a new paint booth.

Thamesdown Windscreens- 01793 868050
Redvers- 01793 541010

Just ask for a quote, give them car type and either a full re-spray or one done cheap without trim removal etc, mine is going in for the latter, they mask everything off, sand, prime and spray.
