okay. im looking to spray those white like subaru white. looks nice. haha. I will try around to get a quote and will update here for ppl who are looking to respray their rides.

 

i get wat u mean. i asked my colleague already. she told me she saw this special offer for swift sports. when she went there, she was told tat the offer is only for white color. but she insisted yellow, so she had to top up $1000 for that premium yellow color. in the end, she still paid abt $2k less than the market price. all these happened in april 2007.

========================

 

How much did she end up paying for the re-spray for the Swift (Yellow )??? [sweatdrop]

White is nicest color. it makes the car look big! other than that, it gives a feeling of generosity which reflects well on the owner.

 

well, these are my own opinions haha

==================

 

Maybe the paint shop pple see u as already "generous". [lipsrsealed]

bro,

 

apart form personal preference..

IMO, black and white is the most difficuit to maintain...

last time i love white so much that, sepnd $$ to change the ride...and was to determine to maintain well,,,the fist few months very onz...weekly wash, detailing,,,order GLARE from Vpost and polish so on...spend alot on the m/c and time....

 

it only take a few idiot to stretch your ride and you sianz 1/2...then lost the zill to polish..then the white turn yellowish...worst part is that , if spray one side...the colour tone is so obverse....

 

For black, today wash, tomorrow dirty...expercially worst when a small rain....black becocme grey...

 

Just sharing for info nia...

==================

 

Last time I drive dk.grey not so bad.

 

Now is black but I dont care. Got scratch nebermind. Got dent nebermind. Just so long as can take me from A to B without breaking down is most important.

 

BTW I just went to have my car wash & waxed today. $18 only. Hahaha. this already considered damm good. My car better appreciate what I did for it today & reward me with super low FC for the next month at least. [laugh][laugh][laugh]

Me too been busy to go down for quote. Staying quite far from there as well.

 

What's your ride? If I going down will get the quotes for your car type as well. [:)]

=========================

 

Doubt it can b done.

 

The paint shop want to see the condition of the car & paint b4 they know how much work they need to do b4 they can paint.

 

This is the professional way. If the shop can quote without seeing the car, better b careful. [thumbsdown]

I spoke with the boss son and asked for a quote for you as well. But he mentions really need to see your ride before quoting.See when you free pop by there and talk to him. He's a nice and friendly guy. [:)]

 

Hope it all turns out well and I will get a spanking new car after the respray!!! [laugh][laugh][laugh]

any indication of price range? last i heard was $1200 for a small car like getz. does the color of the paint count? my fren who bought a suzuki swift sports needed to add $1000 just for yellow! she was told tat yellow is premium color.. i cant comprehend man..

 

Seems like white and yellow are premium colors.

 

May be you could help us ask that shop owner which are the non-premium colors? [:p][laugh]

 

We could take that into consideration when selecting our next car, in case we need a re-spray too.

Hmmmmm......Top-up so much just for a special colour. [dizzy]

 

For me I just tell the salesman if have my colour, I buy. If not, I dont buy. See if he want to make or lose his commission on the sale or not. [sly][laugh]
