Surface and Design seem to get a very good reputation. I think they are based in blackpool.

Surface and Design are indeed in Blackpool and they're based in the ex TVR factory in Bristol Avenue.
Highly recommended.

Hi,

I am thinking of getting my Griffith LE totally resprayed next year at Surface and Design and I live on South Coast. I had had the stone chips done a few years after buying the car new but they made a hash of it. Some say it is better to get the whole car resprayed and treat it to a new roof whilst the car is in Blackpool.

I see you are having your Griff sprayed any rough ideas of what it will cost for a respray in metallic paint?

Thanks.

Stu

I imagine it will be between £2.5k and £4.5k depending on the paint etc. Mine is just a standard paint so will be at the cheaper end but I understand some paints are £600+ per litre. Mine will pan out at about £3.5k but that's because I'm having some panel fit issues fixed at the same time. S&D know exactly how TVR bits fit (they are ex-factory guys)and that's the big benefit they have over other good sprayers IMHO.

Why not give Andrew a call and ask for a rough estimate,
