stokie I am going to send my headlights of to the paint shop today or tomorrow to get painted black for £160 here is some pictures before they get painted
leemarksmith Black Matt, lol... Sounds steep that price, have a go with rattle cans and if your missus ain't in they'll bake in the oven for a better finish... Well if it's electric lol

herb-16v £160? won`t even use that much to do them i payed £200 for wing door and bumper to get done, i think i would be getting a tin and having ago my self, really nice lights aswell :thumbup:
stokie i think i will try to find somewhere else to get them painted then because it sounds like they are trying to rob me.
Matt TBH, if they do a good job, I don't think it's that much to pay to get them done. Have you seen previous work of the people doing them?
stokie Na i ain't seen any work done buy them they always seem very busy when i drive past the shop and i drive past the shop everyday as the shop is down the road from me
leemarksmith If there busy they might bump price up... My mate does it to price himself out of jobs, then if they still want to pay he'll do it and work longer lol
stokie the paint shop is doing my head in now they have had my headlights for nearly 2 weeks now and they still aint done them yet they told me they will be done sometime next week
Matt That's pretty crap. Surely it's an hour job to get some colour on them, as they can prime / lacquer them with any other work they are doing??
leemarksmith Phone them and say your picking them up Tuesday evening, painted or not... Then follow through with it!
stokie i aint going to wait till tuesday ive told them today that if they aint done by monday i am picking them up and going take them somewhere else and i saind i aint paying £160 for a job you told me would be done in 3 days
