If you mean a proper full re-spray... then I'd reckon 3-4k for that.


Cheers,

As said, why full bare metal? It's a Sapphire FFS.

And you want to pay cash mate.

Yeah I know. I'm currently paying someone to reshell my rusty Sapphire into a good shell. He said there's 3 ways to do it, either put it together real quick, or take a bit of time over it and do it carefully, or do it absolutely perfect as long as it takes. I said do it perfect. It's been 2 months so far, and I haven't even asked what it's going to cost

that depends on who you want to do it! how good or bad the shell is! do you want it acid dipped or media/soda blasted! aswell as varying other costs that come with cars!

No, it gets done in between the "proper" work. We have an understanding
