Looking to get a respray on my 1275 sprite and just wondered what kinda money am I looking to spend on a showroom ready job? Also anyone know of anywhere around Derbyshire that could help? Cheers...Fearny

It really depends on how bad the body is to begin with.

 

If you want a job with no waves in the panels and a glass like finish you wont get change from £2k. It's likely to be more if you want perfect panel gaps and metallic paint.

Its all about the prep not the paint in my opinion. I spent a long time making sure everything was straight and smooth before sending it off to the spray shop to be finished and painted. I paid £1k for this and was very happy....

The front bumper alone took over two weeks of prep and is actually two bumpers moulded into one!
