DAVE W Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Managed to catch my wheels on my arches going to quick down a bump as usual I know its cracked abit of the paintwork and cracked abit of the arch but to dark to inspect at the min Anyone got any rough ideas on how much it would cost to have the small areas near the arch sprayed or would the whole arch have to be resprayed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3TER Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 sorry to hear that m8y, hope damage isn't to bad, unlike my rear bumper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Finesse Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Depends how good the sprayer is mate. If he's top notch and can mix colours well.... you could probably get away with spraying the damage and surrounding arch (up to about 20cm from the damage). However it will never be exact, good quality respray work will mean it will be almost unoticable to the human eye, but it requires a certain degree of luck too. Get it seen too as soon as possible. It'll only get worse and more expensive to repair. Lets see some pics at some point cos I'm only going on your description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sortedford Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 if its cracked dave theyll need to strip off the gel coat and redo it before painting bad luck tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVE W Posted October 8, 2004 Author Share Posted October 8, 2004 thing is its mainly the inside of the arch the lip that goes down the front edge so might get away with cutting it back more but dunno if it will look bare Suppose if i get rid of the lot i will be able to drop it more on its arse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 ouch! the slightest thing can be such a fcukin' ballache on a nowhere-near-standard-bodied-car. That don't sound too bad tho, I know you'll get it sorted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
