Local dealer Welch Group dont have a paintshop. Where did the the rest of you Cambs lot get your scoobs colour coded?

Am just looking at getting the side skirts and back bumper bits color coded on my DBM MY00 Turbo. Oh and a possibly a scratch covered.

Simon.

Just the other side of the railway crossing at Foxton as you head away from Cambridge, there is a BP garage. Round the back is a paint shop recommended by Welch. I got my rear spoiler painted there for a £100 I think. Did a good job, had trouble exactly matching the DBM paint, but I think most places do!

Sorry, dont know where the Audi garage is. Do you know where the Porsche and Volvo dealerships are in Harston, go past these heading away from Cambridge. You will go to a national speed limit, then enter a 50 limit, over the railway crossing, and then on your left is a BP garage.

Sorry dont know the name of the top of my head, I think I have their business card at home, I will have a look when Im next at home if you like(but wont be till friday evening). Its only a little place.

Cool

I think the one in Foxton is a Welch Group garage (hence the recommendation!) I've no experience of it though.

The one behind the Vindis Audi garage on the Babraham Road out of Cambridge is called P&R Coachworks. They did an insurance repair on my old Audi which looked fine.

P&R wanted £780

CTR - went and saw the shop u recommended and they quoted £275 for side skirts, rear bumper strips, wheel arch strips and some cracked paintwork on the offside wheel arch. Not bad so gonna book it in next week.

Sounds like a good price.

And if you want to get high, go and stand in their paintshop
