about £2000 im hoping not to spend more then that. Do u guys think thats about right for a full repray. is there anybody who has had a full repray done with rust repair. how much did it cost? would be good to give it to somebody who has already stripped and painted a e30 before am willing to travel.

depends on how bad you car is, just go and see anyone of the guys mentioned and take it from there

tony and sprint auto done a evo 6 for me at 1100 and that was a complete spray job, the last car he did was a z3 coupe at 2200 and that was a complete spray job with some bodywork

to get a proper job, you need to pay top dollar, there are some kurds in highgate very cheap and ok'ish job, i had a e220 done buy them at a cost of 470, but like i said, to get a proper job you need to pay the money
