I just paid 200 to have both my driver side panels resprayed, and they've done a cracking job.

Also been quoted 350 for whole rear bumper/diffuser (the black plastic part) and side skirts to be resprayed.

If that gives you a guideline

I was quoted £750 for a full front end respray on my TR ed30.

I live in London though, prices tend to be inflated!

I got quoted £1500 for  that and kerbing on 2 wheels also a small scratch on the back wing I swiftly walked out (https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fuploads.tapatalk-cdn.com%2F20160518%2F2fe42a6904fe7baea5561808c4b23ff2.jpg&hash=cbdca6a647fb15f1a7c4ab61dee2fe87f04b73be)

That's nuts,

We are obviously in the wrong profession. seems they charge what they want. that mark on the side of the door will probably buff out.

I'd have a look at this site, find the nearest VAG approved bodyshop, and just email over asking for some quotes:

For my other car, an RS4, have been quoted £900 upwards for full front end resprays.

Always a huge spectrum of prices.

I need to get both rear 1/4 done. Some rust coming through and someone before has tackled them in a not so great manner.

Getting quotes next week so will update this thread.
