Xclusive Colours Back With A New Address

[Abo Bob]

Louie from Xclusive Colours has contacted us to let us know that he has finally settled into his new shop. He has been a good supporter of the Club and for that matter of the members of the forums too really.

Louie does absolutely top quality work with many autosalon winners to his name and yet for some reason is actually quite cheap. He can also do all insurance work and will work closely with you to make sure you get the best outcome from the insurance companies as possible.

On top of all this he is a really nice guy as well and has had mucho bad luck with business partners and landlords in the past. He has now signed an 8 year lease so he can finally settle down and do what he does best, paint cars.

His new address is 12 Cumberland Hwy, Smithfield and phone number 9756 6797.

We are just working on some sort of deal that can be offered, something like a full body kit painted for $X or maybe front bar and bonnet for $Y to get rid of stone chips. We will get back to you shortly about this, feel free to suggest something. If you're worried about colour matching don't be, I used to work in this industry and Louie is the best colour matcher I have ever seen.

There is no disclaimer to this thread. I am not getting anything out of this and neither is the club. If you go to him for some work, make sure you tell Louie you found him here.

Cheers.

Something that may help find it.

Its right next to Hungry Jacks, and the building is a pink type colour.

Seconding what adam has said about louie, he's very helpful and the cars that he produces are amazing.

[SECURITY]

ill head down to see him soon to get a quote to have my sideskirts painted.

i heard he has reasonable prices too, and moving to smithfield (cheaper rent) should be better??

my colour is freaking hard to match though.

[mass_iv]

haha you think ur color is hard to match joe????

man try mine.. i want to respray my front bar and mirrors, to rid it of stone chips, it isnt too bad so i dont want to risk making it look diff to the rest of the car.... stupid MP2

[smasha]

LoL... how long has it been sammeh? At least a year

[NXTIME]

mass....MP2 should be easy to get for any half-decent paint shop. MP3, on the other hand....

I will also be visiting Louie soon...

[mass_iv]

hey charlie... i have enquired about it.. the MP2 and MP3 are both hard to get... its some sort of water based paint not everywhere make it..

Its not about that anyways, its mainly getting it to reflect the same as the rest of the car, as in if u paint only the front bar it may look completely different. specially in the sun. If you see my car up close u will understand wat i mean.

[silver gts-t]

awsome.. i would mind a front and rear bar respray, colour matching scares me.

[NXTIME]

Mass,

Yeah, it is all in the application for such paintwork and it must be done by someone that is skilled. No Bunnings special mini compressor + spray kit job on this one

btw, I have both MP2 and 3 colour mix recipe's if required. They are 'chromulsion' based paints and required a real pro to apply.

[mass_iv]

hahaha yeh i know charlie

have u seen mansoors engine bay?

i havent been back to see it finished, i hope it turned out ok... was a little dark, but she looked ok i think... he is happy.

[NXTIME]

No, I havent seen it yet, but I am sure it would make a blind man proud

[lingeringsoul]

LoL... how long has it been sammeh? At least a year

I was about to say that....almost as bad as stevo getting the engine rebuilt.

Yeah ditto on the bodykit spray thing....and the side skirt quote.

[SECURITY]

i got quoted $200 for my side skirts which doesnt sound very competitively priced, especially for acrylic paint.

i'll be buying my own paint gun and doing it myself.

[silver gts-t]

$200 not cheap?

what chu talkin bout willis

[mass_iv]

hey Joe $200 is ok man... it will cost you more to buy ur own gun and compressor.. plus it wont be easy to spray if you havent done it before... also you will need a pretty good gun, not s cheapo, makes a huge difference.
