Resilt

Meeting guy who sprayed mine later, can find out how much he used and let you know.

Not sure what happened there tried to reply! Anyway, just got my S3 re sprayed, prices varied massively along the way from €1k to €4k, I eventually went with a guy for €1,250. ( Top end of my budget!) This was for full body, we agreed that I would do the prep work this helped to keep price down...

plan is navy blue for the main body and white for the roof - including the window panels - and wheels I am sure this has been asked before rough guide for how much paint to do the roof, roof sides and wheels and how much for the main body anyone.

I mean rather than your friend offering condolences he should be congratulating you these old trucks are great fun and despite the hardship ,they always put a smile on your face when behind the wheel!

Welcome, your friend is missing out!

Great work so far, your tackling it head on, what you thinking on time scale? Good time of year to be starting can tip away during winter. How was it driving before you stripped engine?

Ha yep that sounds about right! Think it stuck from the Celtic tiger yummy mummy school runs!!

Agreed! They must make a killing on them especially the ones they export! Well as the old expression goes if you see an ass ride it!! ;)

It's cold everywhere in Ireland! Came over to twickenham to watch rugby - tale firmly between legs on way home!

Looks very good, like the way the rivets stand out off the matt black. Jealous!

Looks good, what's the plan with paint etc... Are you planning on going back to original colour? I like the brown its rare to seem them especially here in Ireland
