Recommend a company that's not North of the CBD to spray and fit my bodykit.


Recommended Posts

I am looking for a comapny with experience fitting fibreglass bodykits, but I'm not looking at spending thousands of dollars (ie. $840.00 to paint and fit a pair of side skirts) at one of the big name crash repairers.

I have a front bar, side skirts, rear bar, side mirrors and bonnet to paint and fit. Everything is currently fitted to my car, however the side skirts and rear bar require some work. Depending on price, I can paint and fit the bonnet and front bar myself. The car was originally two tone, so I also need to have the doors sprayed (as there is a dark grey strip across the bottom of each door).

So, please recommend any places you have been happy with. List what you have had done, how much it set you back and how happy you were with the result.

Oh, and if the place is looking for some publicity, I am willing to wear stickers on my car for a few months (including at Autosalon) in exchange for a good price.

I am also the MD of a web development company, so if you know of any crash repairers who are in the market for a web-site, then chances are we can come to some sort of agreement...

MC doyles at edwardstown has a very good rep, price might be a bit high tho.

Ive had good experience with marion crash on marion road, although they couldnt keep with there dead line but the quality of work was excellent

Ive also used a place called Greg Nelson crash on brighton road, much cheaper then the above mentioned and still pretty good, u get what u pay for, for the most part, but probably best value for money by far.

cheers

Prestige Motor Body Repairs at 226A Bridge Rd, Pooraka 8260 2724 painted and fitted my kit. Reasonable prices and ok quality - not absolutely fantastic but pretty good. I don't know the price as it was a part insurance job with other things too. I think he quoted around $700 to paint, with fitting only a bit extra.

To ALL,

I will back Wally at Sillens special vehicles as has 4dr sleeper,NO ONE takes more care to fit a kit than Wally be it one of his own or supplied.

Regards,

SKYLINE(Kym).... :wassup:

Provident crash repairs is the place to go

hope this might help you

Iam in a similar situation, but I sourced a type m front bar for my r33. It has a bit of damage though, and needs to be repaired.

I have been quoted around 200 to paint and fit plus some more money to repair as it has to be sent off to another place to be fixed.

So lets say around 300 all up. Do you think this price is resonable?

Didnt want to hijack your thread or anything, but it was relating to painting panels.

=p

Anyone want to buy a R33 series 1 front bar? lol

    • As a general rule removing rubber fuel hose is so difficult I would replace it if it hasn't been done in the last 5 years. The risk you damage the liner or one of the inner layers is pretty high if it's not almost brand new. BMW's recommendations around coolant hoses is similar. My R33's fuel hoses at the fuel tank were so perished that they were ready to burst FYI. 
    • Ah yep, will do. Cheers!
    • Yes. It's either "2 wires", or 1 wire, depending on how you look at it. It is the connection that ties the battery -ve to both the chassis and the engine. Every electron that goes in or out of the battery goes through those 2 small spots (on the inner guard and on the engine block). If those are not clean and tight, then shit starts to suffer. Yeah, but measure it again cold in the morning, after it has had hours to rest. You can't usefully test the charge state of a battery immediately after it has been running because the alternator puts a surface charge onto the plates that takes a while to soak in and balance out. It will always read higher, and potentially look properly healthy, when fresh off of charge. But hours later it can look a lot less healthy. It's also worth measuring the battery voltage while cranking, although this can be difficult with a typical DMM because the screem update rate is so slow on most of them. An analogue voltmeter is actually a better tool for that. If the voltage drops too far while cranking, it is a sign of a poor battery. Although I don't think we're necessarily looking for a weak battery here - just wanting to exclude it.
    • https://www.facebook.com/share/15ZMn5oXtc/ Updated Event (so its not private and can be shared easier)  Attempting to coordinate a big push of Stagea's to this years GTR Festival. Great event last year and hoping for the same this year.  Discounted tickets 20% off for their various tickets until the 3rd of Feb Monday. Drags, show and shine etc.  I've emailed them to ask to set a location aside for the Stageas for the show and shine - they are happy to do so if we can get them numbers, I'm happy to keep track of that. Entering as Nismo category.  I'll be road tripping up from Melbourne, would be cool to convey if people are interested, maybe there is SAU convoys from each capital? If you have ideas about that let me know.  https://gtrfestival.com.au
