I think it's time to fresh up my paint, just a respraying not a color change.

 

A lot of people have done it - what did you change along. mouldings? any other pieces?

 

cheers

And how much does it cost if not changing colour for a total respray?

This is like asking how long a piece of string is. It's very much the same situation as when considering an engine rebuild. First see what your budget is and then shop around to see what you can get for your money.

 

A basic respray (same colour) will set you back in the region of £2k. A more professional finish will average out at £3k and for a complete colour change budget anywhere between £4k and £6k.

 

Remember that there is quite a lot of work involved in stripping the car, prepping the surfaces (including doing any repairs),etc.

 

I'm not a bodyshop specialist so take my figures only as a guide. Have a chat with Steve from BodyWorks (in the trader section). He comes highly recommended, won't charge you for things that are not necessary and can give very good advise.

So what about the thing that need to be changed for example targa moulidngs for sure

 

What about front windsheild mouldings...

Targa moldings are secured by 4 screws but you will need to dismantle the T-Top to get to them! Not a hard job! 30 mins to strip both of them :)

I've stripped quite a few! :D T-Tops that is!!!
