right after my paint is slaking off my front bumper and found numerous scratches and parts where the laquer has come off? could this be like buffed out or i think its time to get a respray soon!,

i am in derby where is the best place to be heading can pearl white be matched on certain parts?

 

also is there different shades of pearl white i like the colour ive got but i want a little whiter but not like audi white or whatever you call it!,

 

do i also need to strip the car down for them to spray?

 

i am unsure as i have never had this done got abit of cash stashed away just need to know what im getting into and is it worth it?,

 

also i ahve a crack in my front bumper when a previous owner has hit something in it, do i need a new front bumper of can it be repaired?,

 

if i get a new does it need to be white or can they spray over any colour!

 

 

apologies for the long thread i am just needing help to the right direction and hope you guys are the best to speak to with experiance?

Most respray places will do all the masking for you including the bumper removal, and if they are going to do the insides of the doors, remove the doors too. there is a company in Birmingham in wednesbury, that was going to charge me £1200 to respray my whole car from red to blue, and they are very good as well, artztogo got his done there, i can dig out the number if you want, as they have had experience with respraying the 300zx anyway.

 

there are a few shades of pearl white, so knowing what one it is, is going to be a bonus if you just want panels redone, but considering most people still end up with a mismatch in colour, your best bet would be to go for a full respray matey, then at least you can chose the color you want it to be.

Well ive got 1500 stashed away i love owning a pearl white but want it whiter and fed of the mrs saying it looks like bird poo! lol yes that would be good!, can the resprayer also keep the colour he did or whatever do if a change say the spoiler i could take it down to them and they could just spray it?, please find that number for me would be interested but i know pearl costs more just dont want a bad job with it flaking off etc, i am interested if people know what shades of pearl white there is?
