Paint shop recommendations in south west - Taunton

Post by Tony x » Sun Oct 04, 2015 10:47 am

Hello,
I'll soon be looking for a paint shop to do a bit of spraying on the wheel arches of our Bongo,
I'm currently fixing them, and a couple of other bits, with glass fibre
As you might expect, I'm after a good job being done with an equally good price.
I live in Taunton just off J25 on the M5
Thanks,
Tony

My IT is playing up but I'm able to see smallish images of an orange Bongo? Looks fabulous, and totally un-standard and personalised, which is great =D>

She is very orange!! I don't even like orange......

I am getting a customised 3/4 rock and roll bed as I have the old wooden pull out style seats/bed. I loved the orange and black material so thought I would have a totally stand-out orange Bongo (sounds like a drink). It's a wild choice but you'll all recognise me on my road trips :D :D :D :D

What I like about this is how it shows people love their Bongos like they used to love the old Type 2 VWs - it's your Bongo now its orange, and its not just any old car ;-)

Orange seems to be an 'in' colour. My Lenovo Yoga 2 is metallic orange and I just call it 'orange thing' rather than laptop. Its much cooler like that :-)

I can honestly say buying my Bongo was one of the best things I ever did, even though my ex hated it so much she became my ex. I'm a Bongonut at heart, and no apologies to anyone for that. We are the enlightened ;-)
