ring your local good car parts supplier, cos nobody in their right mind would parcel up paint & ship it to ireland, i think it would actually be a prohibited substance

Roughly 1.5litres should be enough to paint the outside of a nova and get a good finish.

As for price, depends what colour and finish ie. metallic/flat/pearl etc.

When I had my nova painted Estoril Blue, I used 3 litres to do the inside/out and bay and payed £130 (in 2005 so prices will have changed since then) for it, plus thinners & hardener.

I bought 5 liters of Casablanca White in celulose very similar colour to the vxr astra for £60 from my local paint suppliers.

Still varies by about the same amount, depends on the brand/quality of paint, cheapest possible option is normally about £40 a litre.

i always buy the big **** five litres, becauase if you ever have to do a repair or do anything then you dont have to order more paint and when you use it it will be the same match as the rest of the car, because usually its always a tinge out when you buy more. bit like the format NTSC if you work in film you'll understand
