Hmmm ... I'm also going for a respray - they've stripped one layer of paint back & will paint on top rather than going back to bare metal layer.

I told the guys beauty was only skin deep so I didn't care if the insides (ie. door & boot sills) were not painted. However they insisted this be done as customers in the past has seen the result & then asked them to do all of it again. Rolling Eyes

As for the colour, I'm going for the Panda scheme. Sad as I've yet to see one with my own eyes up here in QLD so it'd be a bit of a rarity up here.

As for price wise, ballpark quote was $4,500 on average however I guess I got a good deal at DMD here who quoted me $3,000 all up. It's the first time they're doing an AE86 so guess they've underquoted me for the job. Smile

Quite happy with the job so far as they've completely stripped the interior etc to get the sills as well and remove all rust spots.

I'll post the results when it's done in hopefully another 2 weeks or so. In the meantime, a couple more pics:

As for a blue scheme for yours, I'd recommend this one:

Good luck with yours!
