Can vary massively depending on where you take it to be done, and what you want done. If its a colour change then thats more, because under the bonnet and so on needs to be resprayed too. Anywhere from £500 to £2k
its on the sliding scale of Pooness
£300 --------------------------------------------------------- £5000
Pooo --------------------------------------------------------- PooHot

Private Job. :tard:
why dont you go back to who painted it he 1st time
having the sides done ant going to be the end of the world, i would guess £300-£400 a side if its really bad. they will just rub the scrach out, prime it then blow it in and it will look fine.(if they do a good job) i have seen some right bodgy paint work

:tard: why cant painters charged per hour so if you prep it it takes 2 hours to do equaling much cheap ness

It still doesnt take two hours to a good paint job even if its prepped. PLus they will re-prep it anyway as the person that did it isnt a painter an knows fook all about getting a good surface.
lol bear in mind when rexy painted mine we did it over christmas when his work was closed so only me and him there , to strip down repair any dents prep and paint , then rebuild took 3days workin about 9-10 hour days
so if about shop charges £50-60 per hour then there is nearly £1500
check my rebuild thread see how much work there is involved on a mint shell without any rust what so ever lol
some people are clueless about bodywork... I think everybody should go to a bodyshop for a day and watch how a full respray/prep is done.
