Hi guys / gals ,

Does anyone know of a cheap spray painter in Sydney
Today when dry fitting my new vrx spoiler I dropped it on the driveway ( so pissed ) has scratches and a few paint chips
Don't want to pay too much for the repairers , only paid $66 from eBay for the spoiler

Any help would be good
Cheers

Google Blackshaws at Seven Hills and speak to Steve or Brent.

Say Shane with the Silver focus sent you.

They do really good prices for us XR5 guys, not sure if they will extend it to CCJ though.

You are still going to be looking at over $100 to respray it.

Thanks Shane I will give them a call , I can handle around $100 mark to get it resprayed I might see if they can spray my front air dams at the same time

We get pretty silly pricing through them, so don't be surprised if it is a little more than that...

The quality isn't show quality, but good value for money.

If u paid $66 for it total, just buy a new one ? Why spend $100+ to repaint it?

I thought about that.. at $66 I assumed it was a 2nd hand one, off a private seller....

Yeah it was second hand from a private seller , would buy another one but don't think I would get it that cheap again
If anyone has a black one for sale please contact me

Filled the chips and scratches yesterday , started sanding it all smooth today so I could put carbon fiber wrap across the top and noticed that I had cracked the feet and cracked all around the two studs
Going to cut my losses and through it away

Was just going to wrap the top to hide the marks / repairs
But it will cost a fourtune to get the fiberglass repair done
