No need to have it fully resprayed, just get it detailed for £500 ish, maybe the odd bumper will need a repaint but not the whole car.chunky79 wrote:After seeing Amanda getting hers done I thought about getting mine re-painted, problem is I would cry each paint chip. I would have to have some film put on I think.
Fair play to Amanda for getting it done, just can't see her looking after it the way most of us would.

Re: Paintwork on an RS6
Bonnet, bumper, some tiny chips on roof need painting. Might aswell do complete car so everything matches. I have touched up a lot myself but had loads of road works done around here and it has killed the car.

Re: Paintwork on an RS6
No way in hell would I respray my whole car, only for the fact that the roads are so shocking down here that it would be mullered in under a week. There is not one trip, swear to god, where I don't get massive BANGS on the windscreen etc where chunks of crap are getting smacked up from the car in front. I grimace every time and hunt around for new chips. I have had Autoglass out 5 times now in as many months!
