Not the paint, how much paint will I need (Andy reckons about 3-4 litres) and how much do you reckon a litre of metallic paint will be?

Cheers

Yes, I had dents and two scuffs on both arches that need repairing.

I reckon its gonna cost me about £800-£900 which is excellent.

Can't wait.

Just need 4 new tyres, tax, MOT, trailing arm, engine mounts and downpipe.
