I've finally convinced myself to have the Cerb (Halcyan Atlantis Blue) resprayed as there are several nasty looking stone chips and two large 'gashes' on seperate panels.

Has anybody got any good recommendations regards who could do a good job? Also - would I be correct in saying it costs about £2k ?

Not sure about costs but I've been using the Ewelme bunch for both my TVR paint work over the years - very good results. Ask for Jon - he's 'the man'

I have seen estimates over £2K JUST for the front end.
I would say that £3K min is the norm at a guess.

Isn't an advertiser on here doing a front end respray for a special offer of £600 or £700? I've been quoted £400 for a full respray, but thats if we do all the repairs and priming first, so it's just the top coat to do.

Yes! TVR Body Shop are offering a full front end respray with stone guard for £699 + VAT

My only concern is that it's a "SUMMER SPECIAL" and we know how long summers can last

I am also in need of a bodyshop due to a suspicious hairline crack appearing above the front offside wheel arch - I am dreading to think how much it is going to cost!


Let me know if you have any luck finding a decent place to do it, I keep reading about these people that get work done for 100s instead of 1000s, but finding them is another matter completely - I'm up in Yorkshire.

Good luck
