hmm maybe the colour i suppose it looks unique the colour but i would keep shopping try a mobile sprayer sometimes they a little cheaper

It depends on how there repairing the arches..is that literally to rub down and filler over the top? or is it to cut out the arch and weld in a new bit??

maybe this is where the cost is coming from mine is a standard blue with laquer if yours is not as standard or a special paint this could account for a higher proportion of the cost

my car is natural copper if tht helps. also as far as spraying goes around where i live its usually expensive so after getting tht price i was delighted!
