Question

I am trying to replace an ex forestry galvanized steel dropside tray and timber deck ( approx 2m x 1800 ) on a Defender crewcab/ 130... WITH a white painted shorter tray ( approx 1750 x 1800 ) and dropsides. I live in Central Coast NSW and TipTop can do in alloy, but not able to be painted.

Submitted: 158 days and 23 hours ago.

Category: Car

Value: $23

Status: AWAITING CUSTOMER ACTION

2006 Land Rover defender 130 5 cylinder dies

Already Tried:
My existing tray cant be shortened apparently as it is galvanized steel and cannot be painted. I can have an alloy one from Tiptop trailers on the central coast but they dont recommend painting the alloy. I want the tray to look like it is part of the rig and not a tag on.

Existing size approx 2m x 1800 wide x 250 deep
preferred size approx 1750 x 1800 wide x 350/300 deep and finished in same white as the vehicle.

Cheers

Hi there, Speak to a guy who trades under the name of "Advanced Spray Painting", he is located in the industrial area, just off show ground road, down the road from Gosford high school -His name is Steve and his address is; 18 Enterprise close,West Gosford, PH:43256557. He wont be able to paint galvanising but may be able to help you with the aluminum side of things, he is a perfectionist and specialises in 2-pac enamel, he sprays every thing and anything, you name it he can put paint on it. <br /> He sprays cars, boats, kitchens etc. and is very good, as i said , he wont be able to paint on galvanising but the aluminium he may be able to help you out with. <br /> He may wish to see what you want sprayed in order to assess the preparation required,and if it can be painted and quote from there. <br /> He is a perfectionist, and will do a very high quality of work. <br /> Best Wishes; Matthew (aka; matt0302)
