so, this is one thing ive never realy needed to look at..

But after i fit my new kit, and knock out some of the panel work myself...

What price should i be looking at paying for a respray? ( 99% chance ill be going with a gloss black finnish ).

And does anyone have reccomendations for getting it done in the Chch area?

Ta.

The BEST way is for you to take your car into local paint shops and ask for a quote, we can only give you rough ideas.

Post in the chch section if you want recommendations on local paint shops that do a good job.

if you're going to paint your car black you will want it to be perfectly straight because black brings out every imperfection in a car...

lol nah, its a 72 seater..

its an AE111.. not terribly concerned about the engine bay etc.. probably just an external paint job, at this stage.
