Thinking Of Respraying My Car The Same Colour - Question For Guys In The Business

[Shaun]

Gday, just a quick question for those in the know.

Ive got an R23 gtst, and i was wondering how much it might cost for a spraypainter to paint my car (in the factory white colour) if i prepare the car for painting.

Ive never done this before, but ill do the research before i take the car off the road; i just want to do all the simple (if it IS simple) prep work like cutting back, removal of door trims and factory body kit etc. Ill remove the engine again, as i really want to concentrate on this area. Then ill tow the car to someone who will hopefully only have to finnish off ding repair and start the painting process.

So im after a ballpark figure for materials and labour to finnish off what i might be able to do. Oh, ill have the windows removed too. If it matters, the current paint is in good condition, there are just a few scratches, dings, and dodgy overspray repair jobs, so im assuming ill just have to rough the surface up as prep for the new paint.

I dont want a dodgy job, it has to be top notch as i am a picky bastard.

Thanks for any insight,

Shaun.
