Paint shop near Portsmouth

Post by ChrisA » Sat May 28, 2022 10:53 am

Hi guys

I might be steering away from the wrap idea and leaning towards getting it resprayed in the standard Misano red. Looking to get the front bumper, bonnet, roof and door handles done. Has any one got any good experience from body shops in my area?

I was going to undertake the job as a promotion to the services of Auto Meticulous. However my electrical and building business have taken off this year and I just don’t have any time for the detailing.

I can really see the benefits to a wrap, particularly for the RS who lines work well for wrapping, however without it being needed for promoting the business it just doesn’t benefit the retail value of the car as 99% of people would want paint over a wrap.
