Yeah its 2k, im not sure on what it costs, as my business partner ordered it in, but now we have our own paint mixing scheme, so we can mix ANY colour at our unit, including pearl colours!

Depending on the extent of the respray (outside only, outside and inside, or bare shell respray inside, outside and underneath), prices start from about £700 depending on how much prep/repairs/rust there is to deal with, and how the car comes to us, bare shells are easier to paint as its just prep, whereas a complete car will obviously need stripping down which takes time which adds cost :)

Great, i'l bare you in mind for when the time comes as thats come out really well, love it so much  .

Mine would be a rolling shell for outside spray only as i'l do underneith ect..

Thankyou lews

Hi - very impressed with your work... out of curiosity, what colour is the F reg' Mini you did in your first post, it looks similar to a shade I'm considering for my Mk2 ...?

My car's already away having the shell done locally but we're leaving the engine bay alone for now due to practical reasons (cramped workshop with no engine hoist amongst other reasons!), but seeing as you're just down the road from me I might get you to do the engine bay over the Winter. Will PM you later and maybe nip down to your workshop for a shuftie sometime
