Hi i have a Mk6 ford fiesta st150. I am looking to paint the front grills gloss black. Any idea how much does that cost. Also let me know any places do them for cheap in london.

    In all honesty you could do something like that yourself with some sand paper, black spray paint and lacquer. Otherwise the shop will charge stupid prices if you don't know them. You'd be paying for them to take the grill off and sanding it down. Both of which is really easy and can save an hours labour charge. You can get away with a "not as good of a job" on grills (as long as they are glossy) as there is so little material really with paint on; it's mostly air.

    I'd estimate at around £70 for a shop to do it properly compared to less than £20 in paint and sand paper.

    Hi I’m looking to turbo my Fiesta st150 can I get any recommendations for changing internals as I have spoke to the company selling the turbo kit and they said if standard internals the mapper will have to cap the car at 245bhp but I’m looking for more out of it. Thanks in advance

    Not entirely sure what this has to do with spraying a front grill black. I suggest you start your own topic.

    Maybe having gloss painted grills will add a few more horsepower 🤣
