Spray Painting, Dent Removal Etc

[marko72]

Have a quote for the following, half front bumper respray, respray of rear bumper, one wing mirror, 2 dents being sorted out and finally having my black wrx side sills colour coded to the car. I think the quote is quite reasonable but dont want to have a cheap job done for a cheap price and dont want to be paying over the odds either. The other thing is that not knowing anything about spraying I asked the guy if he needs the paint code or does he contact Subaru for the paint, he said no that he would mix the paint using top of the range paint/equipment that they have. Does that seem sound?

If anyone who would know what the rough price for this sort of work would be then send me a goatquote.

Cheers.

as far as the paint mixing goes then in most places with there own mixing gear then thats the norm, using your colour code they can get the mix for it and mix it themselves, if you were perhaps doing the spraying yourself at home for example then you would go to a paint supplier and they would do it the exact same way.

Why only half front bumper respray???? would be just as easy to paint the full bumper..

the place i use for me painting would probably charge £100 per bumper, £180 for both skirts,£60 for wing mirror then whatever for the dents (cost on these is down to prep/repair costs/time and how much paint etc is required to blend the repairs back in).

other factor is the time it takes to prep all the items.

Cheers Jon for the reply. Half the bumper, had thought that myself but I only have a scrape on one corner so maybe thats it. I will query that. The prices you have quoted are most helpful to my enquiry. Thanks again. I will post up how I get on.
