I found a service called post to paint, this is where you send off the parts you require spraying and he will do it and then return them.
I asked him for a quote and this is the price he gave for -
Front Airdam @ £80
Rear Airdam @ £80
4 x Arches @ £70
2x Door Handles @ £30
so in total £260 to spray everything in vaux black code 80L.
Is this a good price and would anyone ever consider using a post to paint service?
thanks all
Tom

You run the risk of the parts getting damaged on the return trip....do they offer any kind of guarantee?

be best to give your car to a bodyshop so they can match the paint as it may have faded over the years

as everyone said, it could get damaged on the way there/back,
and also it will not be an exact paint match
