hahaha yeah this is funny. I think ylwgtr2 knows alot more than you dan, so just shut up and stop digging yourself in deeper crap then your in.

For 2k they would probably shit in a bucket, put it through the spray gun and paint your car with it. No way you will get a quality paint job for the low rediculous price.

When i bought my car i was giving it a wash with the high pressure cleaner. The paint from my sideskirt got stripped off. Obviously the previous owner decided to get a shit paint job on the sideskirts. Thats what you will get.

Anyways, goodluck with getting a paintjob, just dont be asking here 2 months where to get another paint job when your paint has water marks and starts fading.

your opinion can be expressed, thats the reasons for discussion forums existing, but please act civilised and stop asking people to shut up....and at what point did u get the impression that i wanted to get a paintjob done? cuz i got it done over a year ago n wuz jus sayin that the job was done well n for a bargain.

n for your information i do not depend on this forum to get anything done, it is just a place to have a discussion and get insight into other peoples views and experiences. Please do not tell me what to do, cuz I do not believe u own this forum.

I know a place that will respray your car (any colour) including door jams and boot for $1500. This includes sanding down your old paint (not to metal), filling dints, primer, base coat and clear. But, you certainly get what you pay for. From memory, paint is Motospray (or worse). Expect a few runs, dust marks, etc.. But overall, it isn't that bad. If you do a cheap car like a Silvia in say, white, it will look quite good. This is in the Western Suburbs though.

i act civil to people that actually have some reputation on this forum an not for someone who has been here for 4 months and thinks he knows all.

i may have joined the forum after you guys but that does not mean I was born 4 months ago....or that i have been using cars since of late....

I do not know all, but would be straight forward and as why it is done in a certain way if it sounds unnessary....am not going to jump on the band wagon and go okay, this guy has painted his car or he is a pro, so believe all that he says and agree...

I said what my experience was, the reply to that was "Bullshit", so I asked him if he is a pro or has sprayed his own car. When he gave me a break down, it was not clear to me why he was using certain materials in excess quantity, which from my experiences, I thought was unnecessary. His reply to that was something about the body kit being sprayed.

I have had many experiences with quotation break downs claiming unnessary quantities of materials, when actually they do not use the claimed amount but are just trying to rip u off......

when i meant stripped, i did not mean to bear metal....that is not usually done on a car which has a good body without rust. I meant taking all the panels n windshield, etc. off....

I would not be using the current car I have for more than 3 years, so a decent job for about 2k is reasonable to me. :D

ok then.. you 2 are just like dezz and nate.. so will this ever end.? i think i poll is in order.

So if anyone else can recomend a good shop that would b helpfull..!

corrections have been made to this post as requested by master dezz

yeah nah i think i will leave it black... can he flare my front guards...? coz im getting sick of my tyre scrub... yeah can you get me a quote for that shit mentioned in the first post... how much did it come to,, to do all that shit.?

Oh man this thread is gold.....someone telling ylwgtr2 how to charge for a paint job???!!! :P

Yeh, i walked in with my quote from another shop, and he has promised to beat it.....or was that beat me <_<

You get what you pay for, and paint like wheels etc is a pretty big part of a car loking good....just be careful not to bin your newly sprayed car at Sandown :) (crosses fingers)

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
