Decent Paint Shop in Plymouth?

[crugbun]

Can anyone recommend a car painter in or within 25 miles of Plymouth? Preferably one who is happy to deal with fibreglass/plastic bodywork...
Thanks

Are Docwra brothers still going down behind the main Ford dealership in town? Had plenty of exotica in there when I needed some work done a few years ago....

yes Dave Holiway at RMC in paignton, He was lotus approved years ago and have done some work for me at Brooklands and peninsula.

He's not the easiest person to get on with, but he is very helpful and does a good job.

You are more than welcome to come and see the Chim, the matching is top notch!

I used Ivybridge body repairs in Valley Road, Plypton, Plymouth and was very pleased.

Just an update, Sean has just painted the wheels now on the Chimaera in a blue anthracite metallic and they have come out spot on, forgive the quality of the camera photos.

I still think they'd look better on mine...
Besides, you're never going slow enough for anyone to see them, whereas me on the other hand...

All off at the mo, got the new manifolds going on with non reversal cones and de-catted Y piece, decided to waxoyl the chassis whilst everything was off.

Apparently that was one of the deciding factors in his buying that Chimaera - I kid you not!
