After washing and waxing my car recently, I've decided it needs a new paint job. I found so many little dings, stratches, etc. Not to mention, I got in an accident a while ago, and the new paint on the replaced panels had bubbles in it, which popped. So now there are plently of "dots" with no paint. God what a ****ty job they did. Oh well.
To get to the point, how much will a good paint job cost? I want to keep the same color, and have it look brand new, with the gloss/etc.
I've got a red '93 coupe if it matters.
thanks in advanceNick.
Paint Job Estimates?
I'm not an expert, but my friend works at a very high quality body shop and he is constantly painting his car. I know he gets a discount thogh so its cheaper for him. Anyway the price will vary by quality if you go to macco youll pay 300-400 and get a pretty s%$&y job done. You need to know your price limit and scout out some body shops and check out what their working with and how their paint looks. Also you could probably take the price down considerably if you prep the car yourself. Good luck.:asmile

To get it installed correctly ( ie molding ) that will be several hundred dollars, and then several hundred more to paint the pieces, in a quality manner of course. Lots of people put them on cheaper and paint them cheaper, but unfortunately unless you know someone this is not the field where you want to bargain shop, sure, the best price is always good, but why is their price different than the other 5 places who all quoted you the same... : )
