After some absolute W***KER decided to not once but twice key the side of mine (Yellow 911 GT3) and several other cars in the town centre in Darlington (see the Northern Echo website). I am now needing to at the very least respray the full passenger side of my car or most likely due to the damage caused go for a full respray. This leads me to a bit of a dilemma as I have been playing with the idea for a while of getting a full respray in either Riviera blue (as below)



Viper Green



or my favourite at present Orange



Firstly the main problem is my interior at present is red which against the yellow at present looks really good (in my opinion anyway) but it certainly wouldnt go with any of the three possible colour options. So what I need is a good recommendation of a preferably local company that can do a good paintjob and secondly a company that can recolour my interior to black. I have checked on prices or simply replacing the seats and they aint that badly priced but this doesnt help with the red dashboard etc.

So can anybody recommend somebody and if so have you got images of recent work done.

To be honest after reading some of the comments regarding the uniqueness of the colour from other PHers I think I might just leave the colour how it is and just get it either fully or partially resprayed. The interior is looking a bit worn on the drivers bolster so I am definitely looking to do that at the same time if possible.

The furnitureclinic kit looks quite impressive and may well be worth a try as their prices are certainly a lot more reasonable than the quotes I have had to get the interior done by a professional company.

Re: paintwork speak to Pete at Autospray in Darlington and / or Karl at K-Spray in Catterick either would be my recommendations.

Quick update I have decided to stick with the original colour of Pastel Yellow and have opted to go with UnitSixteen in Newton Aycliffe. Check them out on Google and the pics speak for themselves. On a side note the crazy b***ch that keyed my car has just been given six months in jail for shoplifting of all things. There is some justice in the world I just need to find a ugly butch lesbian to share her cell with her and I will be a very happy person indeed.

Do they have a website? I can't find anything on them except a Facebook page, whatever that is

Does Unit Sixteen have a company name, or an address by any chance.

Googled them but cant find anything that looks like a spray shop.

Sorry I dont think they have a website nor do they seem to advertise anywhere. In my opinion a company that can exist these days with no advertising/website/fancy sales pitch/etc. must be very good at what they do. This is the only details I have on them

My car is due to go in early September as thats when I am away on holiday for two weeks so it means I dont have to live without it and they can keep it for as long as they need without the pressure of me chasing the work up on a daily basis lol.

PS if you can get hold of the November 2012 issue of FastCar magazine there is a full write up and some excellent pics of a Fiesta these guys did which is featured on the front page. The pictures speak for themselves.
