Well if any of you have seen a Tuscan Beige TP you will know what I am talking about, I am after a respray and I was thinking white with dark tinted windows...

Any idea on how much a white re-spray will cost? Or any other colour ideas?

I wanna see one in black. Though i have seen a white one kicking around that has had all the plastics colour coded. Actually looks pretty good.

Didn't even think about black, a nice shiny black with some chromes...

I may as well just save up for a better car though.....

Im thinking of gettinf a re spray too for my Elante. I like the original gun metal color so i might just get it resprayed in that color again :)

So $800 you reckon ? would that include some dent and rust removal too ?

cost of paintstripper, etch primer, primer, topcoat and clearcoat. Painted it myself. spray painting is not hard if your willing to give it a go. dont do black though... very difficult colour to paint. the metallic grey paint i used was way easier... even though it's metallic

my grandpa has a oxy welder that i used to weld over the rust. i ended up having to replace 3 of my doors cos it was just easier to replace them then to repair them. $20 a door cant go wrong.

so i guess it cost me closer to maybe $500 for everything needed to remove the rust, the paints, plastic primer (for bumper bars), wetrub paper and polish.
