After some little shits dragged a wheel bin on the boot one night, I've been considering a respray, or just do the boot and bumpers. Anyone had a respray, what sort of prices were you quoted? Cheers!

Just had my front bumper and wing re-sprayed, you would be looking about about £150 each to get done, I paid cash and have used my guy lots of times, he is very good but not all places will do it for cash and will charge VAT on top.

Seen some crazy cheap quotes for respraying around here recently, don't know how you guys do it! I'm getting quotes of around £400+ for a front bumper off and respray alone down here in Berkshire :x

Happy to give you the details of the guy I use, he is based in Chesham, bucks but not that far from Berkshire. Let me know and I’ll PM over his details :thumbsup:

Go for it, nice to have options! Did you have panels / bumper off or did he spray them left in place out of interest?

Will send you a PM, first one was bumper off and left it with him, second one was rear wing respray on the car. His work is spot on, could not tell it has been sprayed and he has even matched the BMW factory orange peal gloss on the lacquer.

In the end the guy offered £550 to respray the front bumper and boot, Ill see how it compares to my local place, thanks for the tip though.
