Hi guys car got T-boned and the doors are dented to buggery, paints peeling etc.

Gonna buy a couple of new doors to have resprayed.

Any idea on price from a reputable place? Colour is nightfire red (CBT)

Cant find any damn doors in this colour seems to be quite rare :(

thanks in advance:baby:

Hard luck, have no idea on price.

Where abouts are you, just in case anyone knows a good paint shop near.

Area is all important.

Us Southerners pay through the nose for stuff like that - Brummies get it for peanuts. Powercoating wheels for example - down here £80 a corner - up there £80 for a full set !

That's a shame then aswell,wouldn't really be worth the trip taking it into consideration cost of fuel,but for a decent job your looking at around £90 per panel including materials,but don't know what they would charge round your neck of the woods mate.

you will end up having the whole side painted, bet on paying circa 400.

Is this due to matching the finish perfectly?:sneaky:

to paint to doors edge to edge (as in not blowing into the wings) may result in an obvious colour mismatch, whereas blending into the front and rear wings will/should make it very difficult (if at all possible) to notice any slight colour indifference.
