Looking good, are you doing the all the work yourself? Will you be colour coding the bump strips while you're at it?

 

[C1TPT]

that looks really good mate i need my car resprayed but cant really afford it

 

[cupraNCS]

Just doing the work in college so had help from from ma lecturer and the other boys in the class Its not a full respray unfortunatley just bumper, wing, bonet and roof, Its not gona be the best respray ever but for £80 u cant complain

Just gona leave the bumpstrips as they are, like the way the black breaks up the couler

What do you study at coll? something to do with body repairs? £80 Bargain .

 

[cupraNCS]

In my 1st year of Car body repair and refinishing, hopefully be doing another 2. we always have different lecturers cars in doing repairs on them and also have a mini pickup, 1930's MG restoration projects on the go

Well chuffed with it only costing £80 Wonder how much it would cost if a was to put it in to a body shop to get the work done??

 

[Deleted member 12147]

Cool. Would cost a hell of alot more in a pro shop.

Your going to have a half faded car buddy

 

[cupraNCS]

It was already half faded when a started anyway Just an unfortunate part of owning a yellow seat

Wil be giving it a damn good polishing so just have to see how it turns out

 

[Guinness]

think if your not blending the colour it might look a bit silly especialy on a yellow car.

ALOT more than £80!

good work bud

 

[Forbez]

Get the rest done for £160 , go on!!

 

[PhilW]

Yep.

Personally i think its gonna turn out awful, you might as well do the whole car if your goin to the trouble of doin the bonnet, roof and wings.

 

[Hmans3]

looking good

 

[sirjimalot]

yeh will look daft panel to panel.

abt £1500 to £2000 depending on damage etc.

But may i ask why u have left the little things like side repeaters etc. in

 

[CupraElliott]

Will look alright if the paint match is ok and the car gets a good full detail to bring the rest of the yellow back.

Resprays really vary up and down the country. I payed £650 for a full red respray, that was a hell of a lot of work getting the paint smoothed down to metal again as it had been paint stripped.....3 weeks infact....panels welded in where badges were etc. Benefits of living in the North and knowing a few people

 

[cupraNCS]

Looks like a good colour match so should look ok once its had a good detail

 

[Riko]

I handed my bumper over to a spray garage today and its costing me £150, should be a good job as their are the official repair/sprayer for Seat in Milton Keynes. Got a quote on the front wing which would cost £120 alone!

Wouldnt bank on it mate, when i had my valver`s bonnet,splitter and bumper done i used seats bengal yellow and it turned out awful. Im suprized i sold the car to be honest it was so obvious to me.

I've just been given a number for a guy over near bozeat who's suppose to be pretty good and also pretty cheap. Let me know how the bumper looks when done...
