Cabbie Unregistered C	Wow, I bet you wanted to cry when you saw it stripped down for the first time. Looks like they are doing an awesome job though. Very thorough.

All lights being redone...sanded by hand...into oven for primer for the weekend and 3 coats of paint next week followed by 2 of laquer...after shock of seeing it in bits got quite excited by how it will look next week!!

jonofitzer Unregistered J	Looks great. Only when you see the car do you understand how much work goes into a full respray and why the cost can be high. I see you havent taken the back light cups out. Few seconds with a heat gun and they pop right out.

Jakke Unregistered J	Looks really nice. Should get my Coupe resprayed too, because some idiot has resprayed it very badly some years ago. Costs around 2000 to 3000€ here in Finland :-( Last edited by Jakke; 19/09/2013 14:38.
