Default Complete Car Respray

As the title says, I want to find out how much it will cost me to fix up some small dent's,block back the old paint and repaint a new colour on a 98 WRX, also anyone recommend a panel shop south of the river(cannington,welshpool,bentley) that would do the job.
Thanks.

See my signature..

Budget 5k for a good job that includes a colour change..

Same colour usually about 1k cheaper.

5k will get you a nice job that will look decent.

Depending on what colour you decide to go, repairing dented wrx panels isn't always an option, the door shells are virtually wrapped in tin foil. I opted to buy new doors and new front fenders for my project, simply because so much time ($$) was going to be needed to make them perfect again.

I paid $3800 for new panels (from regents), and $6200 for painting (inc weeks of labour and materials) and could not be happier with what i paid, and the finished product.

I 100% recommend Benson the Buff King (BBK).

colour its going to be done in.

kool, reminds me of the Osmans 2dr sti that was done in the same
colour.



That pic doesnt do the colour any justice.

Definately looked better when it didnt have all the tiger shit on it, ive
got the original pics in an old fast 4s or hot 4s mag but would take me forever
to dig it out.

Getting a bodykit aswell?
