SNAKEBITE Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Since when does a Defender have a decent paint job? NATO green from a tin applied by a brush or at best Hammerite spray, either way £50 should do ya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flash Posted June 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 im thinking of something a little different, like the orange you can get on the new ford focus ST. nice and bright very bright, but looks good. would like a decent job. mate had his done and the company didnt spray the whole panel just the outside of it. so when u opened the door, the inside of the door was purple and outside red. he wasnt to happy. cheers flash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardy Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 It cost us about £2500 to have our horsebox sprayed (7.5t with 20' body) & its a decent job, but a simliar sized one was quoted at over £5000 for a respray because of all the prep work required - I guess a lot depends how much work is needed to get it ready for the paint.

Teal Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I had a collision in my defender last week, damaged front left wing, the most expensive bit will be the respray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

young airgunner Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 why would you want a real nice paint job on defender. defenders look at home with nato green paint or flaky blue haha followed by dents and scratches. its what gives them character Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
