would be a pretty rush job for that price...

daiflu is probably a good person to ask on this matter, as would guy_27 and mr_cali

if it's anything likethe show car they park around, the paint won't be gloss or flaked or anything, may as well paint it with house paint (:sarc:)

sometimes paints look good gloss like yellow and blood orange.. i reckon a plain blood orange astra would look mad

probably just a solid base coat, no clear. It's possible, but wouldn't expect a great job :)

The bare metal respray I did on my old commodore costed 600 in primer/paint alone (and wasn't 2K either)

For that price mate, they will use cheap 2k paint(also only solid colour), no primer, no dents removal, masking of all trims and windscreens (no removal...needs removal for proper finish)..etc. After a few years, it will peel off around window edges and trims as they were masked and not removed. Also expect some runs, dust and dry spray here and there.

At that price, I would expect their resprays to be like their website, cheap and nasty!
