Decent Bodyshop In West Midlands?

[Richard K]

I'm looking at doing a few minor mods to my car.

One of which is a bad boy style bonnet by cool louvres, however they don't do the painting. :(

And if I'm gonna be going to a spray shop I might as well get a Booster Rear roof spoiler, wrc rally lower grill sprayed too.

So I'd like to know of any decent bodyshops that people have used themselves in the West Midlands/Midlands area.

Any Ideas would really help.

Thanks in advance

Barwell Bodyworks :)

Currently respraying my car in a custom colour, work is top class, very good prices, especially if you go through me or mention I put you on to them.

Has done lots of previous work for me in the past and also many other people I know.

Give Steve a ring on 01455 842648, mention Kev Challis gave you the number

also how much are Cool lourves charging for the bonnet? as the person who bodykitted my corolla specialises in all sorts of work and can do just as good a job as them if not better and not charge as much either!

PM if your interested and I'll give you the contact number

I just had my bonnet done too, but I have the facelift e111. It cost me £190. That was for fixing bonnet (after accident), fitting "eyebrows" and spraying the bonnet and wings.

Excellent, a reasonable distance for a decent job.

I had the price from cool louvres ages ago but I've misplaced it,

So I'll give 'em a call and find out again, then I'll PM you about it.

Thanks again.

btw. Your car's excellent.

Ooo that looks good SR, just enough to make you look twice.

My car passed it's MOT with the sunstrips on so I can go for the Bad boy bonnet, but I'd seen a Belgium car which still had a bit of a curve to it, I'll see if I can find it again.

[Scottish_SR]

Yeah I didnt want to make it to OTT. Was scared at what it was going to look like when I went to pick it up. But all is well. Now I have no scratches on the bonnet and wings, im happy!

Yeah some of the Belgian Corolla's are very nice! I really like the Booster "Big" spoiler, maybe see about that soon!

[Richard K]

I have to become a gold member first, then I'll order the 'Big' Rear Spoiler. does envy do discounts for Gold members? or is that a stupid question?

The quad lamps are to expensive though. But I like them cos there a bit impreza ish.

[Scottish_SR]

Not sure mate, could have a look later on. Yeah they do look like the Impreza. Pity mine are twin lights as standard. :(

[Richard K]

I think that was the one and only advantage of having a pre facelift model.

You get to spend £400+ to be illegal in the uk. MOT failure because they are European.

Unless I turn the individual light sockets 180degrees.
