Id say youre talking in and around 2500e ... that might even be a bit low as I know that paint isnt cheap...

yeh, think danny said paint cost €700 alone! is there a website you can order it from? he never got back to you with a price in that other thread! wonder how much labour would cost for multiple coats like that?
At least ther's a sale on the bodykit at the moment!!

i'm back.if you have to ask a price to do it.then you wont do it.it has to be a very silly thing to do on a car that is not worth that much anymore.but some of us just cant help it. :smt055

i got the paint at cost price for €700 and i had to get lacquer and alot more.i done it mtself,you would be lucky to get someone to do it.and it would cost you about €2,500 to €3,000 .you could get a 2nd fto for that.

my car is still out there but no-one has seen it. :smt078

i want it back.so dont ask were it is. :wink:

it call that lovly fto colour..lol..sorry it's hand made.Kandy is no joke.it's very hard to get right.i made a base coat first then a top coat ,then it's matter's how many coats you give it to get colour..
