    Okay.. I've recently re-painted my interior trim in a chalky Rover blue.

    How much do you think it'd cost to have this paint applied to the whole of the exterior of my Saxo.
    And I mean done well.
    Lol.

    Estimated price?

    Two grand!?

    My car only cost £1500.
    I knew that a custom paint would be ridiculous but surely a Rover blue or something stock would be cheaper? Lol.

    If your just having the exterior of the car and not whole car im sure it will only be about £1k but it really does depend on ur area and what they are charging best way is to get some qoutes!

    Yeah..... Finally found the phone number for a local spray shop......
    Two thousand pounds for only the exterior.
    Apparently they're talkin' £5-6k to do the interior & exterior.

    That's fucking ridiculous.. The paint to cover a car that size can't cost more than £500.

    What a rip-off.
