Word of mouth counts for a lot, speak to people who have had their car painted and been pleased with the results. There must be some good painters in your area. You dont want to have to go hundreds of miles from where you live as that can be a pain.

Another vote for Gibby, I was going to use him to paint my saff before I decided against a full repaint.

He’s not cheap but he is thorough.

Another vote for Gibby, he's just finished this after doing bare shell on it and paintwork is fantastic.
