alex64789 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Afternoon All! Just a quick question. Getting the bumper re-sprayed on my zed and be quoted £275 for the whole front bumper. No idea if that’s a reasonable price or not so thought I would see what you lot think??? Many Thanks, Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT1703 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I was quoted £190 by my local bodyshop ( they have done a few bits & pieces for me in the past ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukmouth Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Depends where abouts you are, i find that the prices south east are 10-12%~ more than say Midlands/North - £250-280 is about the norm that i would pay - I remember paying around £260 for a full bumper respray + fitting a front lip for my focus.

Cragus Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I reckon that sounds a little high but again I think it depends on where you live and sometimes if you have a past relationship with the garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanS16 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 £250ish for a good job. I had a cheap job done on my last car and there was overspray everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex64789 Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 Thanks for the quick replies guys. You have set my mind at ease a bit lol. I initially thought it was a little high the price too, but like you say if it’s a good job it’s worth it. Sprayer said he was going to take whole bumper off to do it, and also offered to touch up two car park scratches (very minor) on the door.

sammy86 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Hi Alex I was quoted by nissan down in the southwest £230 for a fully front bumper spray incl removal and refiitting the bumper which i thought was quiet a resonable price from a dealer! But again it varys from where u live in the uk! Hope u manage to find a good price! Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
