[QUOTE="seb, post: 11277, member: 1607"] Gents, Need your opinions please... My 328I is now 11 years old. And whilst it is relatively a low miler the paint condition is getting on a bit and those dreadful carpark dings and scratches and stone chips is ruining the looks. Whilst the paint is still shiny, is shows imperfections and some uneven colour under bright sun and not to mention also the watermarking. I am contemplating of sending it in for a resprays in its original colour. I have some reservation however, - I know the original factory ICI paint is of good quality. What type/brand of paint would match factory quality? - From your exprience, will a good paint shop produce a finish that is similar to factory finish? - Anything that I should ask or observe the paintshop before I send in my car? How much would a good paintjob cost? - How about undercoating etc? I would appreciate experience sharing and perhaps example picture of new paintjob :burnout: [/QUOTE]
