Evening all,
Picked my golf up last month and have enjoyed it so much already. Anybody else local?

Completely standard, not so much into my modding but more my detailing. Bonnet is heavily chipped, does anybody know a rough price for a decent spray?

Also anyone who has the experience, how well is a spray colour coordinated with 8 year old tornado red paint?

yes I'm from York and I own a GTI mk 5. Just changed the rear end and put an OEM R32 bumper with a miltek exhaust. looks way more attractive!

as for spraying,  I got quoted £60 quid to spray my bumper and it was an absolutely shocking job! you pay for what you get definitely. I then got quoted £250 off another guy which I thought was too expensive. in end I got a price of 120 + VAT. I'd just shop it about, just do not go for the cheapest, cos it is too good to be true!
