Anyone recommend anybody?

I want a full outer and inner respray, but don't want to have to sell my soul to get it done!

(RJ Automotive quoted me nearly ?10,000 to do this! :o And I am supplying paint!!!)

(They then quoted me ?4500 for just the outer!)

Thanks, Rob.

RJ are damn good but no one is 10K good! I find it hard to believe mark and the boys are charging that much TBH, you could buy a car for that.

I recommend my friend who sprayed my car. He replaced every panel and did a few trick bits along the way, sprayed it in ferrari red and all for well under ?2000.

If you are serious give him a call, though he is a very busy guy. Tell him Karl put you intouch and he will look after you. See my feature to look at the kind of job you will get.

His name is John or you can call him JP his number is 0121 359 5839. His work shop is situated in Birmingham City Centre.

John is a very busy guy and you will need to book it in with him in advance. Also dont expect to get it back in a week, as this is how you will keep the cost down. He has to do alot of insurance work to pay for the location of his spray shop!

I am a strongly believe in you get what you pay for. John does a brilliant job at sensible money, where alot of body shops cut corners he does right the first time. Put it this way, my rear arches will NEVER rust again thanks to john.
