Painting costs

[finnie]

I need your expert modding opinions

I've no idea what a good price is for painting etc, especially for a high quality job. I've been quoted nearly £100 for painting a lip spoiler, is this good? Also need a rough idea how much a rear bumper should cost to prime, paint and fit including pdc holes. (duke dynamics)

Thanks guys

I was quoted £200 for painting OEM M3 mirrors. I'd say £50-75 for a lip spoiler depending on bodyshops.

Pm teddy, he has contacts with bodyshops that could help you out.
im sure it would be cheaper than that!

boot spoiler no more than £50

I've just had my front and rear bumper done, including black mesh, and side skirts....paint and fit £300 all in.....fitting was crap, but the painting was alright if you live around midlands area PM me

50-70 for lip spoiler me thinks. if u are brave, maybe do it yourself?

[finnie]

I'm happy to pay for a good job, especially with fitting the rear bumper as I have heard there are certain issues!

From what you've all said it sounds like £100 for a front lip is a bit high though

I need somewhere preferably in Glasgow or at least central scotland. I'm picking up the car in Manchester at the end of the month so I could get the stuff sent there instead of to my house if they can fit it in a day. I doubt they cahn though as they'll need my pdc sensors to test fit before painting.

It is true though, I bought a painted lip spoiler for my cousins BM for something like £80. IF he'll let you, might be an idea to post it down to him and get it done?

Lip spoiler about £50 i think mate.

I had my mirrors and front grilles painted for £100 and thats a good body shop who did a good job. Obviously a cash deal as well ;)

painting charges really vary from region to region as the costs are mainly determined by the labour they charge and quality of paint materials they use.

100 quid to paint and fit a front splitter/spoiler seem reasonable to me. If it is the rear lip spoiler then it's way too much but you know that already :P
