When I bought my Z it was a bit unloved on the paint front not really sure how clear the pictures are but bonnet boot wings where really over mopped and full of swirls not to mention stone chips




I think it's a bit clearer but the bonnet and boot looked like a really badly scratched record



I had a plan for the paint to be done but unfortunately things didn't work out (the gent in question passed on) .One of my mates gave me this guys number in Warwick tell me what you think. he mopped the car completely painted both wings sills and the nose what do you think?







Total Cost £150.00

I need to give the car a good clean but well chuffed
 
That's £150 very well spent. Looks great now.

We will expect a picture every week proving that you are keeping it so shiny!
 
:o what a great price and even better result 8) car looks spot on, as mentioned before the hard bit is keeping it that shiny from my previous Experience I had a metallic black Puna and was a nightmare swore I would never get a black car again but saying that there's no better shine than clean and waxed black paintwork.

Evening Rick
it will be Black then :D to be fair just bought a Golf GTD in Black both that and the Z look great Clean but a the golf does a 140 mile commute a day so it don't stay clean for long :)
 
Looks great op, and at a great price. How long did it take? And i take it was just a stage one polish?

Am I reading this correctly, you had part of your car spray painted for £150.??

I read it as he had it machine polished (mopped)

Evening All
I found this Guy through a friend of mine that had an Audi a4 convertible that was in a shocking state I was saw the car before and after it had been with him and was sold. Don’t get me wrong this is not or ever going to be the work of a show car but for me it does the trick.
First three photos are before
Bonnet is swirly to buggery wings are chipped and sills are chipped
Next three photos where after the following
Bonnet mopped (probably stage one compound)
Both front wings painted
Both sill covers painted
Problems
Drivers side wing was a bit orange peeled I pointed this out to Bryan and it was sorted
Total cost 150.00
Bryan is an interesting character to deal with in as far as what you see is what you get and he can be a bit blunt if you know what I mean, but as long as you agree with him before he starts the work what your expecting he has been nothing but honourable
Having snags with my PC at the moment due to rebuild I will IM Bryans details shortly
Hope this all makes sense PM if needed
