Supra Gaz Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 So, a few months ago i removed my spats and skirts to go for a cleaner look. My skirts came off beautifully, the spats are a completely different story, they were held on by tiger seal and all sorts of rubbish, removing this stuff has buggered up the paintwork in that area, i am trying to judge how much it would cost to get it repaired and sprayed back in black 202. Any ideas, especially from our bodywork guys would be great. Now the wedding is done i can spend some cash on the old girl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOSTA Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 (edited) It all depends on witch body shop you go to bud. I needed one of my rear quarters and rear bumper painted in 202 black a while back and my mate was on holiday ( the guy who I normally use for all my body work) so I got a few quotes from outher bodyshops and It ranged from £260-£480.00. If its the 2 rear quarters that need doing I would be thinking around the £300 mark, but like I said it all depends on the bodyshop. It could be cheeper or more expencive but I would of thought £280-£300 is a fair price Edited June 5, 2012 by FOSTA (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigGilchrist Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I had the rear spats nicked off my last Supra - went to my car to find the same big blobs of tiger seal that once held my spats in place. The bodyshop were confident of removing it, but it ended up damaging the paint when they tried. I was about £400 for both quarters, I think, but that included fitting new spats.

Supra Gaz Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 No new spats for me, i am going smoooooth, i have covered my arch lips in carbon from the carbon mods kit and they cool, i am on my3rd level of laquer though.... £400 seems reasonable, i am happy with that.

safcdixon Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Have you tryed heating the tiger seal and doubles sided tape up with a heat gun and peeling it off, and then give it a good mop and polish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
