So you want a good paint job but aren't prepared to pay good money for it? Hmmm.
I thought you did your last fix yourself as you were learning how to do it at college or something anyway?

So you want some one now to actually do the repair and paint it and you don't want to pay £300? Your not asking for much are you?
Do you even have the equipment there so a good enough compressor and a clean area with good extraction?

All they have to supply is compessor and gun!! Haha, to paint a side your going to need a decent size compressor, 100L. They aint small neither. Hope youve done something with the curve where the arch spat goes, cause that my friend, looks a twat.

Buy a £1 powertool from Poundland - it will break if you breathe on it.
Pay £101 - you're alright.
