New Spoiler - Need it spraying.
Hey,
I have just bought a spoiler for my Peugeot 306, nothing fancy! It is the standard black/grey colour but I want to colour code it to match my car.
It is approx 120cm by 20cm.
a) Does anyone know how much this is going to cost?
b) Im struggling to search yellow pages for companies that do this, what exactly should I search for?
c) Long shot - anyone got any recommendations in the Midlands area?

you should be able to get it done for about £50-£60. just look for car bodyshops, accident repair places etc. these places will all have the facilities to paint parts. Try you local garage. Even dealer garages will offer this service but as usual you will probably find that independant garages are cheaper.0

I'm being quoted £80 - £150 plus VAT at independant garages!0

Do it yourself then! You could spray a spoiler with a few cans or get the paint and use a small spray gun.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0 -
A friend of a friend sprayed one for me for £50. £80 doesnt sound too bad as they have to buy to paint out of that.0

£80 plus VAT romario ... making it nearer £100. <Sighs>0

I would never rccomend that you do it your self as you will never get as go a finish as a garage would. remember these guys have the experience and skills and tools to do it. you will probably not get a good match if you do it yourself. if this was the case many sprayers would be out of a job. I would say you get what you pay for.0

Update: Going to a local Ford Dealer who is going to do it for me :-)
Thanks for your help and suggestions. I agree with malky, the finish of a garage is going to actually match the car. lol.0
