• Anyone know what the going rate for a partial spray job is?

    Our family car is a van for a number of reasons. I may be looking to replace our current Peugeot Boxer with a newer one soon. The main challenge with this is making it look less like a commercial van, and more like a day van in the VW T5 mold. Like our current one, it will have two seats in the back and windows on both sides.

    I'd like to get a silver van, but then get the bottom part sprayed a darker silver, to give it that nice two tone effect. It would blend in with the colour of the bumpers, but I'd probably not get them painted due to extra cost, and the fact they'd only end up scratched bumped...

    Does anyone know what the ball park cost of that could be? Are we talking more than say £2k or less?

    If it's going to cost loads I might hold out for an all black van, but these seem be rare and expensive, while the silver ones are a similar price to the plain white options.

    Something like this, but with the bottom skirt section in dark silver/grey.

  • I'd budget about 1k maybe a little more for that to be done decently. Where are you based? I know a very good guy in Gloucester but that might be a bit far.

  • Ah, that's sounds close to what I was hoping. Gloucester could work as my parents are based in Cheltenham.

    Its not likely to be that soon, I'd likely buy the van, get the important stuff done, then get the nice extra finishing touches a little later...I may tap you up nearer the time.
