I went to look at my Griff today, what can i say.... Superb . Worth every penny getting S&D to do a full repaint IMO.

Looks great.

+1 for Sportmotive from me too; they did a full respray on my Griff a couple of years back, including fixing some crazing in the front wings. It started out as a front end and a door only, but Ian realised various bits of my car were slightly different colours so couldn't match it easily (previous owners had front end and rear end damage). Therefore it turned into a full car job, but Ian did it without stripping everything completely to save some time and cost, did me a good deal and I'm still delighted with the result.

I had them fit the larger headlamps too (as per the LE cars) which I think look better and help make them just a little rubbish at night instead of very rubbish! smile

Sportmotive in Stoke did a fantastic job of my Chimaera, which was a candy red over silver shimmer, custom finish, and a Tuscan-esque headlamp conversion at the same time. A lot of chips, cracks and scuffs were filled at the same time, and the overall finish is stunning.

The cost was good value given the work I had done and the finish achieved, but I'm sure that there were cheaper options available. 3 years on, and it is still makes me smile when I see it.

As alluded to above though, you get what you pay for. Buy cheap, buy twice.
