    Looking at gettin sideskirts sprayed and fitted and also door handles colour coded(2 handles) on Dublin Northside. Carcraft are charing 320 for this just want to see if anyone knows somewhere that will do this for cheaper but still a good job. 320 is a lot for this..

    Cheers

    If you know where the Yacht pub is I can help :)

    In the lane right beside the yacht (left hand side if you stand facing the sea front) about half way up on the left there's a great place, black garage door. Can't miss the sprayshop.. Guy in there called Dave sorted me and my oul fella out for bodywork and spraying and was €170 (dent below rear light and cracked bumper , other minor touch ups). Asked me to bring it back after cos he wasn't happy with the colour :)

    Yep I'm not too far from there. So is this an actual workshop or a small thing? Want it to be a really good job as handles are usually hard to do as the paint might wear off.

    I have heard mixed reports about Carcraft. Were you happy?

    They've quoted me 320eur for just spraying the sideskirts and handles. No fitting of the skirts. I Have unofficially been quoted around 300eur for spraying the skirts,handles and all rubbing strips and fitting the skirts through a friend who knows the owner of a bodyshop. Waiting to get a proper quote back but I think carcraft is charging a lot there but very little??

    What kind of timeframe is involved in this? Obviously they would have to get the paint from Fiat right?

    320 is half right for this kinda job, it would not be more than a day,

    today i had a nixer that was on a corsa was just a dent and few scratches, got it in at 9 and valeted 'n all by 2, not bad days work for €300.
