   just got a quote of £250 for a front respray ( from the top of the windscreen forward) apparenrtly they will powder coat and bake it? if that makes sense? is this a good price guys?

   reasonable but powder coat might not look the same as the rest of the car

   Yeah that sounds about right, when i had the front end of my car done it cost me £320 (that also included the painting and fitting of my spoiler) - mine was sprayed though thinking about it
