People know what they sell for ie 30-40 so with primer, paint, sanding pads, sealant there would be no profit to even bother doing them as mentioned by grlee.I dont mind doing them and as any like minded business person its all about sourcing cheap to make a profit. Im being honest and ive even told member who have asked me to swap etc for a discount there better off selling not to me as id want them as cheap as I have been getting them. No big issue what the cost price is as people know the work involved in doing them and also the problems that could arise if not done correctly. ________________________________________ V6 Power!Faster I can go the better!

I hope so because its not easy to do cleanly,.. I charge £50 to do them on-top of what They cost to either collect or posted to make The masks worth while,.. Which puts them at £70-100 Which hardly anyone is willing to pay and I'm not making them for any less! ________________________________________ Proud Member of the ASTOR Owners Club |

Have you opened them before?,.. - YES I hope so because its not easy to do cleanly,.. I know I do black masking service on 306 OcI charge £50 to do them on-top of what They cost to either collect or posted to make (Reasonable price) The masks worth while,.. Which puts them at £70-100 (around about the price mark i sell for) Which hardly anyone is willing to pay and I'm not making them for any less! - Nobody appreciates the hard work it takes to do them!  ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!
