Dont get me wrong someone will do a re-spray for £1000 but ya get what ya pay for, how can they be so much cheaper than every one else
They cut corners and use shite paint etc not the premium stuff

NOT TRUE...
you really have to shop about, i could knock something up which has a pearl effect for about £1200 inc all materials and labour and i bet you any money you like that the finish will be better than the factory finish, no flat spots, no orange peel etc.
If your interested in anything, drop me a u2u and i'll try and help you out.

Anyone have an idea of cost on his or will it look crappy if you just paint the top half without touching the bottom half at all?
Thanks
