Im looking to get spray job done on my mini and I was wondering if anyone could give me advice as to where to go and the costs of getting it done? would I be better off going up the North price wise?

Depending on where you are. If your near the Dublin area i would recomend contacting Paul Kelly of Minifix. He is listed under garages in the golden pages. He will certainly know about getting a top job done.

You would need to get the car looked at. It is never possible to pluck a price on a respray as it all depends on what hides beneath the current paint. You may need extensive panel work also.

look up minifix in the golden pages and ask for Paul Kelly. Arrange a visit. he is near Croke park

he will provide first class advise

Got quoted €500 to respray the roof only . This also will involve a little repair work caused by roofbars that wore away some of the undercoat.
So a full car respray would probably cost in the region of €1500 to €2000 depending who you go to and how good the sprayer is. Also if they don't really want to do the work they will give you an outragious quote.
