Post by: Alexis on August 09, 2012, 12:33:53 pm
Does anyone know how much it will cost roughly to get the bottom half of the rear bumper painted?

Thanks

I got a whole new genuine VW rear gti bumper (lower half) sprayed and delivered. You can buy this for £180 and keep your old bumper too.

This thread explains all  :happy2:

i think £100 sounds reasonable. The body shop i use is DS Autobodies in Debtford in Sunderland. One man band called Daryl Sanders. i have used him for years and been brilliant! i just recently got a front end respray on my GTI and it cost me £450. That was wings, bumper, bonnet, mirrors, roof polish due to scratch at rear, put a stone guard coating on my front arch inners to make them more durable and blended half of front doors and a-pillars and looks absolutely perfect!

My whole family uses him when needed i wouldn't go anywhere else!
