How much would I be looking at for a full spray of a gloss black on my car including sanding etc. Anyone know anyone in the wellington region who could do it?

youl be loooking atleats 2k for a good job,some places are even more expenisve.cause there alot of labour hours envolved ah

I think its more like 5, unless you know a guy who will do it for cash

black is also a colour that will take abit more time to be done right as blemish an imperfections show up easy on a black car

at least 5k unless you get mates rates, and thats probly just a basic respray, body and door jams, more if u want to do under bonnet and in the boot, then the paint used would vary in price and the method too, for a real show car glossy wet look finish its not unusual to use up to 8 layers of clear etc, basicaly your question is like saying how long is a piece of string? best bet would be to get out there and talk to a few places and see what they can do for you, dont just take the cheapest quote either, ask to see some of their work, and ask to see a car they have resprayed at least 1 year ago

I know a guy.. Pappu put me on to him and he's cheap! Quality of work is up there too..

Excellent Automotive Panel & Paint

44 Grayson Avenue, Manukau

09 277 7317

Ask for Grayson - tell him Pappu or that lanky white man with the White V4 WRX sent you :D

Charged for $500 for:

Fill in and repaint boot.

Paint rear bumper.

Paint both rear quarter guards, which roll to the a pillar.

Paint bonnet (incl. vents).

So - a 1/2 respray for $500!

I'll be going to see him (after I fix my gearbox) to get the skirts and endcaps matched too.

Even if you live in Wellington, going to Auckland for a few days is probably worth it if it's going to save you a couple of grand's worth of work.

Yeah our cars are actually really fuel efficent on long drives i found, made if from far end of auckland (whangaparaoa) all the way the the bottom on taupo (omori) on 3/4 a tank

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
