Dan, could you possibly find out. I was going through my previous PMs and found the quote for a full car respray and it was gonna be $1450.

That would be 7 layers of plastidip and I am assuming that at least 1 or 2 layers would be the clear coat.

Skoda paint is quality.

Can I sand blast it to test said theory?

My detailer doesn't do it Marco, it was just his suggestion. Didn't you know of a place that specialise in plastidip?

Who quoted you $1450 for a whole car respray?

Unique dipping in Midland is the place I knew. $1450 was for the whole sedan in darkish blue and gloss clear.

Jay Leno has a vid of them clear wrapping his new McLaren on his youtube channel - comes up very well, give the protection and didn't seem to cost "too" much - might be worth a look if there is something similar local

Wait, are you talking proper respray? Or whole car plastidip for $1450? I'm confused...

Why dark blue? I thought you were a big fan of the sunburst?

Sooooo I'm brainstorming here, but if I were to get a respray...what would people's thoughts be on BF style GT cobra stripes, in black, over the bonnet, roof and rear and GTF style stripes on the side. Then possibly gloss black panda eyes, rear diffuser and spoiler...too much? Or awesome?

that would be 99% your decision, mate... nobody else is going to be able to decide how "good" your car will look in your eyes :) do what makes you happy and be done with it!
