    1/. Budget a minimum of €1000, maybe more. You'd be better off to sell it tbh.

    2/. It's a piece of paper, usually rectangular :D

    p.s. Sorry - when retaxing it, you can amend the colour.

    To get a decent job done you are probably looking at the guts of 2,000! Actually its 2,000 for my Santa Fe for a daweo matiz it would probably be closer to 1,500

    There's also a field on the licensing cert for change of colour I think.

    OP, you could probably buy a younger grey one for the price of respraying?

    Cost €1,000 for 7 panels + bonnet + boot on my Passat this week.

    depends on how good a job you get done, can't imagine a €1,000 job would be top notch,

    you'd be better off buying another car, as the resale of the car will be seriously dented by the gray on the outside and yellow on the inside thing.

    Even at 2000 euros we don't make money on a repaint, there's a ton of work as there's always some bodywork needed when your repainting. I much prefer a crash repair job tbh.:)

    I can't imagine how bad a €1,500 total respray would be! a single bumper costs €300 where I work
