Fuji Shooter Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 (edited) i think someone mentioned a while ago about having the lower half of there land rover sprayed, think it might of been fuji shooter, will have to see what he paid, if it was him and he doesnt mind sharing My Series 3 I paid £2k for the lower half, completely back to bare metal. For the 90 I paid £3K again back to bare metal and all panels removed. For the work I thought the price was good. I think you should be happy with the quality of the paint on Bonny if you can get it for under 3K, it looks a brilliant job he has done.

viking Posted November 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 settled on £2500, and i guess with everything in mind, im quite happy with that, there was a lot of paint to come off, and bits and bats off filling and the odd bit to straighten, and with what FS has paid i dont think its to bad, and i did always think id be happy at £2500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
