You guys know any good places for a respray? My budget is about $2000. I want to get my RA28 redone dark purple or black.

One of my mates told me about some place in Station st Granville where they train mechanics/panelbeaters where i could get it done for $1000?? Anyone heard anything about that?

thx!

PS: I live in castle hill

there are some real dodgy places in melbourne that do it for 800.

They don't bother to remove anything from the car. Just prep and spray. Also they don't do door wells, or boot wells.

You'll also get a lot of overspray around your black trimmings too..

but you get what you pay for.

"Handbrake turn" i think its called.
Its kinda like a TAFE apparently. Which reminds me... my dad's a tafe teacher... i'll have to get him to have a chat with the mechanics/respraying department... Very Happy

Wow that sounds awesome. I'll definitely keep you in mind when i save up to get it done.
Plus of course there's some surface rust that's bubbling the paint which'll need to be scraped out.
