Default Cheap Respray in Sydney

Hey,

Does anyone know of a cheap re-spray place in Sydney? How much are we looking for a front bar, bonnet, side skirts, and rear bar?

i know everybody wants "cheap" resprays. but im a painter by trade and can people realise you get what you pay for.sure you can get cheaper prices but the quality is what goes down. just think of it as would be better off spending that bit more to get a quality job,that will last too.those cars you see with clear flaking off,thats poor quality labour and materials.
cheers dylan.

to give you an idea where i worked as a painter before we charged $400 a bar....so your lookin at $800 for 2 bars, $250 for side skirts, and $550 or abouts for bonnet, another place i worked at charged $750 a bar plus all your other parts...LOW XR your right with what you say, the other thing is you could get a cheap job and expensive job done that look the same in quality but one starts delaminating paint after 6 months, so make sure you suss out what paint products they use and prep work that takes place....hope that helps a bit

a place at gladesville and then a place at rydalmere in sydney....you could get it done cheaper if you dont do it threw a shop as well but then you dont have a booth with clean air and no dust and dirt floatin around, so you end up havin to cut back the paint and buff out dirt nibs.... so ends up being a bit more work, its kind of a catch 22 situation lol.... where you from?
