andy n Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Hi I have noticed a few stone chips on the paint (titanium S1). Can anyone recommend a repairer ? Also what sort of finish do you get, are they still visible ? thanks Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyB Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Needs a respray assuming they're not deep. Use a good place and it'll look like new. I can recommend (once again) Hallcraft in Cradely, great job on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malbon Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 I have noticed a few stone chips Few being the key word. You see some cars that are peppered. leave it for the winter. Its only going to get more with all this gravel and shit on the road. Book it in for early March when the weather is turning and you'll have a nice shiny car for the summer instead of a re-peppered car that needs doing again. Stop being a GJOB. No-one sees our cars in the light at this time of year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladders Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Jono, how much did you pay when you had your New Ali Liz resprayed on the front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malbon Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 I didn't - Insurance jobby. Found out later that PS rang my dad (who was registered as the owner) to ask if he wanted to pay more to prepare the surface before spraying it. They said they wouldn't do this gratis as it would mean my car would be in better nick than b4 the prang ?? std practise apparently with elises ??

Martin R Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 My front clam and bonnet is now being done at Hallcraft. I should have it back Friday or Saturday. I will let you know what its like when i get it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin R Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Andy, Ive now got my car back from Hallcraft. It is to my untrained eye a top quality job. You also get the offer of a courtesy car and a full valet thrown in. I know this is the kind of service you should expect but it does seem rare these days. I notice you are in Birmingham as well. If you would like to come and have a look to make your own mind up, send me a message and we will arrange it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott_Mac Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Martin, if you don't mind saying how much did you pay for the respray? Am tempted to get mine done as on the rare occasion i actually wash my car, i almost cry at the number of chips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
