Repainting whole car

[pwuser150141418016]

I have a 2007 Honda City and it has genuine paint all around but has scratches, dents and a little rust on the side panels. I want to repaint the whole car. What I want to know is where to get it done from. A Honda 3S dealership or a local workshop/garage, etc. in Lahore? Quality is very important and the only thing that matters to me. Thanks.

3S dealerships are quite expensive. Try getting this done from a local paint shop. Since you are planning a full body paint along quality, make sure you visit a workshop with both denter and painter. The plus would be that along denter, instead of tapping the surface, you can get parts removed prior to painting for a robust finish.

If ur from lahore, contact @sadatmasood11 he owns a workshop and has all the facilities. Saw a couple of pictures of the work he has done and was pretty much amazed by the quality. If u need his number then do let me knw will share in inbox

3s is cheapest in quality and are not expensive at all. Quality paint jobs are well over u are charged at any dealership but one should never compromise on paint quality. I even don'y take my bumpers to dealerships...anyone dealing insurance will keep low quality material and labour, because otherwise he cannot manage in insurance cover.

Send me the pics of car, i can recommend a couple of places for top quality work.

Can you share the pictures with me?

[pwuser150141418016]

These pictures were taken right after a thorough wash and not in sunlight so the pictures may or may not be able to catch everything in a detailed manner.

As you can see the passenger side has more damage in form of scratches and dents and also has rust forming on the rear wheel arch. Driver side is okay as it only has some dents. I don't plan to paint the trunk and roof as they are scratch less and dent free.

Your car is perfect, get good rubbing polish done and you'll be good to go. Don't spend on it bilawaja

Repair foot boards and bumpers if they are in bad rusting condition. Rest you have a clean car don't paint it

[pwuser150141418016]

What would you suggest about the rust on rear wheel arches and on the left foot board, it is all dented and rusting.

[chinyoti]

Fix only the panels required to be repaired.

[fastian04]

If u want it in pristine finish, yes full pieces will be painted. Overall, your car is not in very bad shape and u can touch-up the rusty areas and go on.

For paint job, expect around 8000/piece for a quality job. This rate may trigger some awam but paint quality and finish matters a lot and insurance work is done under 3000/ piece. The amounts say it all.

Sure, let me ask him and whenever he shares the pictures with me i will upload them here

Authorised dealer and quality? Really o bhai dealership has the cheapest painters... quality jobs are not done by dealers

[fastian04]

Anyone knows about paint job knows what is called quality..anyone dealing in insurance will give sasta and fazool work
