Unless the guys doing drugs on the side, I dont believe you can get a "quality" job for $5000-$6000 especially with stripes and gumballs. Baz is right, unless you stoneguard the wheelwells at a minimum to protect your paint job, your wasting your money.
I reckon the $10,500 Baz has been quoted is a great price since it includes underbody, boot and engine bay.
Most shops capable of doing the job to a high standard in Adelaide are asking $8000 and a couple $12,000 including stripes and gumballs and my underbody, boot, engine bay and most of the outerbody preparation has been done.
I wish I could find someone that could do a good job for $6000. Id grab it with both hands.
Merv, I asked one of the guys that quoted $12,000 what I could save if I went without stripes and gumballs, at least he said $2000 less.


Regards
