rite..for those of you who are intrested in my progress.. i e Noonster19 and Jill!

Effect Front, Reiger GTC sides and PSG Spoiler are all in my room.

the Reiger GTC rear bumper extention should be here by 2moz morning from Illusion style..

im off to the body shop on wednesday to get a quote and see wen i can get booked in for.

what do you think it should cost? i was thinking in the region of £300 - £350 to get the below work done.



Front: Corsa C E-Fect

Sand down
Primer
Paint

Sides: Reiger GTC

Sand down
Primer
Paint
Fit

Rear: Reiger GTC

Sand down
Primer
Paint
Fit - so its flushed into the existing bumper

Spoiler: PSG

i dont think there is anymore exterior work to be done once this has been done. ( i hope)

Or do it my way.

Buy all the stuff.

Get a good air compressor and guns, if need be 2nd hand.

LEARN how to spray and get handy with body repairs.

Do it all yourself, save all the dosh that would be spent on bodyshops, and then do other folks cars or bits n bobs for some £££.

Make money and also be proud to have done it all yourself.

Just a thot
