Im looking to get my mx5's nosecone painted. Does anyone know of any places that offer reasonable service and a good price?


I am located in Newmarket, but also spend alot of time in Ipswich. So somewhere nearby would be great.

Not far from Ipswich is Peter Teager Cars, Woodbridge Road, Tunstall, Woodbridge IP12 2JE. Peter has many years experience of cars and did a brilliant paint job on our Lotus after it snogged a cone at a track day !!

I can recommend Robin who runs RJM Body Repair in Bury and Stowmarket.

He's a big Min fan and PH'er. He's also worked on my Lotus when I drove like a knob and hit my neighbours car wink

Robin Middleton is a real gent, met him in Stowmarket where he has premises next door to the fabulous Alex Crow Mercedes specialist. Got chatting with Robin and was impressed by the repair work RJM had done and took one of his business cards. My son Matt (Smartlad) hit a deer in his Punto and RJM did a superb job with the repairs...at a great price too. Teh paint finish is so good, I will be thinking of getting the nose cone on the Griff done by them (to remove stone chips).
You can contact Robin via the website: - http://www.rjmbodyrepairs.co.uk/
Good luck!

I'm in Newmarket too.

Bodyworkz (A.R.C) on Studlands is where I have had a few bits and pieces done and have never had reason to fault their work. I had bumpers sprayed and fitted and one whole side of my old BMW done and the finish was spot on.

Also managed to damage the paint on my S2000 rear bumper on a hidden wheel barrow in the drive - paint match and finish are faultless.

Hi there, this is quite an old discussion but I would like to ask if the bodyshop in Bury St Edmunds is still recommended as I'm looking to get a pair of front wings colour matched for my vw golf. Thanks.

RJM are based only in Stowmarket now, they used to be in B.S.E and Stowmarket, but now only the latter...give him a call on 01449 771962.
