Sounds good if it is a proper job. I wouldn't do it for any less, I would probably charge more.

Just trying to get a panel beater down here in sydney to do rust work is a major problem, your lucky u can get some one to do the work.

Thanks Rhys,
Tried the guy that winerot used but is to busy at the moment.

rhys i was at tormina ind centre the other day looking for a glass place
& spotted across from the bmx track a blasting place with a bay daul
cab & a karman ghia in the yard both in the primer stage do you know
the place & around the corner down a lane a beetle in the same stage.
not often you see vw's in a small industrial area at different places looked
promising.
jaksc sorry about that would have been good he takes pride in his work
but does have a backload of work, i want him to do my next one too but
it will be about a year before that happens if it does at all.
steve said in his business most panelbeaters want the new cars quick & easy(mostly plastic) & a more profitable turnover, ashame no pride in there work

thats cause when you find yer little lepricorn you don't wants to share ay....I had sill done on my CC a while ago...so that price sounds more than fair, they are a serious job, and not quite grind off/weld in, the CC is quite complicated to do well.

You get what you pay for.

ahahahahahahahahahahahhaa wally guess who's they are??? give u one guess :P:P:P:P:P:P i will get some pics when i go in next the progress is slow but sure!!
cheers
