that I want to reoaint the roof on my rare silver car. :D
She`s not worth anything now I know, but having flung the best part of £400 at her for the mot.
I`m keeping her with just 45.321 miles on the clock she`s my baby so there.
but what colour, my Mum had a 2 tone consul dluxe with a sort of pale blue roof & a dark blue body.
Bloody silver what will go with that ??? I need someone with computer skills on changing the colours about :y Swmbo says I`m bonkers & need to eat more fruit. Nana yellow ??? Black maybe.

Vinyl wrap the roof black would look good, seen something similar on youtube sure it was a polish silver omega drifting

About a grand for a lick of paint all over... typically £100-150 per panel :y

Something subtle and unobtrusive on the roof like err....
Big red, white and blue union jack. :D :D :D :D

Christ what year did you get that quote from 1990, your looking a 2000 plus for a car that size. If you find someone who does it for a grand then let me know and i'm booking in :y ;D ;D

When I was looking around, you got two types of places, sometimes prices. The first was £1000-1200 which was a blow over and we never want to see you again. The second was £1800-2400 and came with a guarantee, in my mind they are charging for 2 full resprays and if they never see you again - winner.

Nitro's bright red Omega has just been in for a new 'overcoat'. PM him....I doubt he will make it common knowledge on here what it cost, because he will be scared Carole (Mrs Nitro) will find out ;D ;D ;D ;D

I'll get shot down in flames for this.....but here goes.
I think a star silver Omega would look impressive with a seventies BVR. :y
Think Cortina 2000 GXL...... or Capri 3000 GTXLR. :y

Yep bvr would look good :)

For that sort of money you would be lucky if they washed it first!
I bought a litre of Z147 base-coat(I already have all the other necessities) about a month ago, and was unpleasantly surprised to find it was over fifty quid!

Respray it in black and it will instantly gain 200bhp, and be a "fast black one" :D

How much? I'm sure it wasn't anything like that last time I bought some.
