Any suggestions on good and quality paint shops round kl area? My car is full of dents and scratches everywhere mostly because of my dog :D I was wondering how do I identify whether if they are using good quality paint and lacquer ? And how to judge their workmanship and quality? Like for example taking off headlights and door trims etc? What shops should I avoid? Please advice and need some suggestions for good quality shops

Quite expensive. They quoted rm5k to change colour and 1 month of work time. I surwayed a few other places. Price range around 3k to 4.5k to change colour for a cefiro a33. But most of the shops I went to are known for their quality. Some parts of my current paint condition quite bad.. last time claim from insurance and they used some cheap paint now its all peeling off.

Depending on what u meant by 'dents' n d actual condition of ur car if require some sort of knocking or welding job then extra costs do apply...since u x mention type of color ur interested in I assume d price quoted to u @ 5k is for inside out job inc d extra work mentioned above...

Anyway just FYI I did a cefiro once before inside out job...in pearl...inc refurbishing of 18in rims plus undercarriage anti rust slightly lower then what ur quoted...

Another note...when insurance claiming its a norm they use low or average quality products..plus d workmanship...

Bro. hex,
All depends you want quality or cheap. Some cheap ones will be like your insurance claim paint and peel within 2 years.:banghead:

Awesome, can you pm me your number and shop location? Ill drop by tomorrow to your shop and we can discuss further.
One of my 18 inch rims also need refurbishing. Would be awesome if everything can be done in a reasonable price. And are you using glasurit paint, lacquer etc?

Yeah inside too.. don't think ill be doing at those shop. Over my budget..
