Would you supplly the parts?
Sills & Jacking points are around £200
Fitting £200-£400 depending on where you go & other bits that need doing.. also Inner sills may need doing...

sills are okay. just soft on the front corners. where are you guys getting your metal from? mike or CGB? i will be supplying the parts. can most body shops do this or is it a job for a renault specialist?
sorry for thread hijack. :)

A Decent bodyshop / welder should be able to do the job...
Mike is better price & service than CGB...

I got my jacking points from mike and inner sill repair panels from ashy On here
I don't know anything about welding or bodywork so do you guys think the sills repair work looks ok?

how much are you paying for the welding/sill repairs?
i am trying to workout what i should be paying.
repairs are looking top by the way..
ta
I paid £480 and that was me supplying the parts then it was extra for the repair panel for the floor and for the sills to be sprayed and car undersealed.
Probably could have had it done cheaper but car was off the road because of it failing its mot because of the sills and the tax was out! The guy who done came out to the house to give me a quote also give me trade plate to get the car there and back and let me pay in installments

wow thats a pretty good service!
i am in a similar situation..my MOT is out and i know it will fail on the front jacking points. i have popped into a body shop near my house to ask about repairs and prices. as the MOT is out it is not as simple as just getting the car to them and up on the ramps.
what i will probably do is book an MOT and get a better idea on exactly what welding / repairs it will need to pass and then take it straight round to the body shop to get it priced.
talking to them they seem okay.. without seeing it they said it would be around £150 a side to do the jacking points.
how long are your repairs going to take? did your side skirts and arches come off okay?
Cars back with me now it took about 7/8 weeks but that was over Christmas/new years/ bad weather with the snow
The rear arches seemed to come off ok and as for the side skirts I had ktec racing combat side skirts on I am planning on putting some oe side skirts back on and changing the rear arches. When I can find good parts to replace with
little update I got some used front arches rear arches and side skirts gonna get them sprayed up and fitted
Front and rear arches theres only one rear arch as i managed to pick up one the same color as my car from mike at gt turbo spares

thats very kind of you :D but i wouldnt put yours down its looking quality to me :smokin:
looks really good buddy!
really like the intercooler piping is it custom made??
No it's not custom made its just the ktec kit! It will be coming off soon though so a smaller cooler can go on so I can fit a standard front bumper
man fresh black paint looks soooooooooooo good :agree:
cracking progress fella, just hope the exhausts are coming off :p

It sure is having trouble finding a 2.5 bore with a 3 or 3.5 tailpipe at moment though! Will see how my next pay is looking and may go custom made
