Respray - Where To Get It Done

[Sauce]

I'm in the process of working out just how much I'll need to get my line looking a little less like a scracthed and paint-faded faded bland series 1 and more like the respectable, tough looking Line it should be, SO, my first step is to kit (M Sports R33 kit) and respray the whole car in metallic silver again.

So here's where I need the help - Who, where can do a good respray at a good price? I figured i'd be better off asking here before I wander off searching aimlessly on my own. Help me get Project No-more-average-looking-33 underway!

Thanks guys!

you say you don't want an avarage looking 33....yet you want to just paint it silver? forgive me if i see the irony in that.

I think Nik (Amaru) knows a of guy who does good resprays at a good price.

New Gel or J-Racing are 2 places i know of who do good work

Doesn't need to be a gaudy colour to stand out.

i will just put my two bob in that i was not impressed with the job newgel did on a couple of my parts... however the price was pretty good i guess like everything you get what you pay for

canberra body works are good but it'll cost.

Prestiage in hume is who did my last respay on some bits, very good service.

just one question to add

how much does a full re-spary cost???

thanks

[Veilside R33]

anywhere from $1000-$15,000

It's like asking how much a suit costs, you could get a cheap one but it'll show.

Allow yourself around the $3000 mark for a respray, and a couple thousand more for engine bay and door jams, but you may get away with a full spray for 3k.

in canberra i was yet to find anyone who would even do a full respray for under $3500 - $4000K i think someone up in sydney said $3000... if it was cheaper than that i think everyone would be getting resprays

[supadan]

yer as i thought thanks guys for your input

[race_snooze]

um i can give you a much better idea, if you prep the car your self eg. sand/strip prep for (also depends on the condition of the body if dents are need to be fixed the price goes up) spary the job will cost much much less. I have a mate that does restro work in fyshwick, they would charge you about 7k for you doing the strip, but you would get the best finish he use to work side by side with the best in town tony furgal (how ever you spell it)

Farugia

Thing with Farugia is he's reputed to only work on a car if it's "good enough"

[race_snooze]

forgot to add that they got top engine bay for summernats last year

Good on him I say!

If he has gotten his business to such a level that he can choose what cars he works on and what cars he doesn't then more power to him!

Wouldn't you feel like shit though? walking up with 10k for a respray only to find out that he refuses to work on bloody nissans lol.

[Bluprint]

Well, he was going to have a look at Wendy's S13, so I guess he does consider Nissans
