got mine done when I did my mirrors, the primer and paint was more expensive than regular paint.
if you don't prep it right it just will flake off in a matter of months, the last guy who helped us out used a german brand of primer & paint, will get the name off him, or if you're on the northside I could send you there?
was around a few hundred dollars for the job
they have a nice panel shop outside of miame that sorted our s13 before we owned it
thanks ryan i might check em out and im around the southside in palm beach
Should cost around $150 to get it professionally sprayed, maybe even cheaper if you prep it. Its only 2 long strips.
You can DIY, just make sure you use plastic primer and sand it properly.
thanks mate, i dont trust myself doing a diy
prepping the side moulds is a job for a skilled professional, they're a 'pimply' plastic that is treated during the mould which is why it's better off having a workshop do it as it's cheaper and mine has lasted 5yrs+ now, very happy
i'm curious about this too, and i'm willing to drive to syd to get it done, seems that canberra is way expensive, unless someone can tell me otherwise. would the shop take to mouldings off the car and spray or leave them on?
they would probably take em off. im geting mine done for 100 whenever i get a chance
wow i just did mine in my driveway- sanded, plastic primed and just sprayed the damn thing (covered car up with newspaper) only cost $50 or so...
