c/c trim

[Ollie.h]

Hi, can anyone reccomend anywhere that can paint the black plastic trims that surround the wheel arches and the bottom on the bumper ? I would like it colour coding the same as the car.

also any idea of cost etc ?

If anyone can help that would be great

Cheers

Ollie

Hi Ollie and welcome to MINI2!!

Some friendly dealers will colour code your trim, but its a job that undertakable by any good bodyshop!! Just ensure that they are familiar with painting plastics...

Just make sure that you use a VERY well respected painter, cheap jobs looks SO bad. It might be worth spending double the money for a better job.

Expect to pay a few hundred quid for a good job. Worth it though - my current MINI is colour coded and the JCW I'm buying will be as soon as I get my hands on it.

Approach your dealer or dealer approved bodyshop for a start, then shop around for quotes and see what you come up with.

How much did they charge you DCM?

[Claire_S]

£275 done by way (plymouth) for colour coding, check minie in the gallery

£800 from BMW I just got quoted for my new S...and that's with Aero kit already on so there's not much plastic left to do!!

I want a good job doing on it though that's not going to chip/wear easily, but half that price would still be a lot IMO.

Find out which bodyshop they use, then go direct to them and haggle.

Apparently they use their own bodyshop, in-house jobby!
