today is a good day

hurrah! i get my car back today after 4 weeks being resprayed,typical its been the best march for ages and i've been tivless.
but today i pick it up,theres quite a bit of 'putting back together'to do, but at least it will be in my garage.

just needed to tell someone.

What happened that needed a respray ???? Have I missed a nasty thread ?

[mlumb]

no nothing untoward,its just that the paint was patchy,as is often the case with rosso pearl.

however its now good as new having had a 100% respray,new windscreen,new lights etc.

just got to put it back together now.

Out of interest how much for the respray? I am considering doing mine. My local respray man is suggesting a clear overcoat type paint on top of the normal paint that will prevent/reduce stonechips, anyone tried anything like this?

the cost of the repray was £2000 which included reshaping the front end to take the new lights.
as mentioned before it was a total respray,not just the outside,looks good too.
