Sup guys, im painting my 1991 240sx and i dont know if i should pay a $3000 paint job or just get a $300 one. The car's previous paint (black) is already peeling. I want to paint the car white, think that makes a diffrence. Thanks!!!

Yes, its generally more expensive to do a color change, i would think it would be very hard to go from black to white . There would be alot of prep work to be done.

its painting the interiors which is a pain and very labor internsive... imagine, they have to paint every door opening, trunk, engine bay, etc.

on a side note... DO NOT,, ANYONE... that lives in Jersey.. take your car to Bridgewater Auto Body..... oh my god those people are as$holes......

As foar as paint goes...you get what you pay for...get the more expensive one, not only will it look better, but it will last longer and scratch less as well.

I can't believe where I live, Mako can paint your car for like under 200 bucks. Oh, guess this. They even have 2 years warantee on the paint, including ROCK CHIPS. I don't know what they are thinking, but damn.
