Parts Spraying....

I'm looking into getting my debadged grill and door strips sprayed with the colour of my car, I don't want to do it myself because I'm lazy and I'll make a gash job!

I can send the parts away because I have ordered new door strips & still have my standard grill.

Any one have the phone number of a spray shop in the South that could do it?

i recomend removing the door stripes instead of painting them, looks a 1000000 times better

I've already done that, it left all the glue down my doors and although i've tried everything people on here have suggested to get it off, my polo is White and it just doesn't want to budge.
Petrol, WD40, T-Cut pretty much everything but paint stripper.....

thats strange.. my polo is white also and i removed the stripes and the glue too..
took about two hours but it was defenatly worth it.
at the time i didnt use anything special just a tough spongelike thingy.

Your cheapest alternative is 'methanol spirit'. Just dab a bit into a cloth and start scrubbing like mad, need big arms or you get

Works a treat and won't damage your paintwork
