The colour's 8M6 - lagoon blue, no idea on the cost of a respray though, someone's bound to have a rough idea though.

I had an MX5 re painted by a local bodyshop a couple of years ago (all prep, same colour, so not inside of panels etc) £800 , was really happy with finished job

Jesus mike that was cheap.. For a full respray with top quality de beers paint primer and lacquer I would be looking at roughly €1000/1100 depending on overall condition of body as I'd say there are a few door dings etc on the rest of her that may not have been spotted

Yes, I was pleased, every panel had something that needed attention, the front bumper was removed,  absolutely no overspray on anything, as that was a must,
Primer top coat and clear coat, but to be fair they had it two and a half weeks, so did it slightly at their leisure and it WAS a cash job but you really could'nt much fault the end job
