Front-end respray - South East

[andyoleary]

Hi all,

I want to get some quotes together for a front-end respray on my Tuscan - wings, service & main bonnet and a couple of other minor patches - so anyone got any recommendations in the South East area? Not looking for cheap and cheerful but I do have a budget so not looking to get skinned either...

Ta muchly

Hi Andy
Give Austec a ring, had the bonnet done on my car recently by them.

[andyoleary]

Hi Paul, yeah - I'll be giving them a ring I think,

Cheers

We use them for work. Don't know if they've got experience particularly with TVR but they are very good.

[andyoleary]

Fair enough, I'll add them to the list, cheers

Altered Image Coachworks in Strood, excellent bodyshop. Specialists in fibre glass and Carbon fibre too.
Used them a couple of times.

Had my main bonnet repaired and service bonnet and grill replaced at Racing Green. Colour match and work very good, could have done without the cloud of fibreglass dust blown into the cabin when I first put the fan on but it wasn't too bad. Alternatively try Hilton coachworks in Stansted, they own Castle and have huge TVR experience although not used them myself believe their work is good. HTH

My numerous stonechips and shopping trolley marks are on my list of things to do but not sure whether to bite the bullet and go for full respray and poss paintsheild stuff or just to patch up.

I live in reading - are AK decently priced?

I spoke to someone (Cerb owner) at topcats recently who had a full respray for £1500 inc paint (I think) - I have been quoted that just for touching everything up!

Can you give a link to Ak specialised paintworks - cannot find on Google...
