Done right or done maaco style.
Anywhere from $1000 to $8000 depending on how much u want done and the color. I got quoted at $5G for a complete color change which included door jambs under the hood, trunk, completely fitting the kit perfect, molding and shaving pieces fixing any dents in the car. -------------------- |

I paid equivalent to $1,600 or so for my color change, and body work such as fixing tons of dings, shaving the holes in the front bumper, etc.

I got a quote for $4000 and up. The guy looked at me like I was crazy for wanting to get a color change on a car that has 217000 miles. He suggested I take it to maaco or just rub it with some compound and then wax it .
maaco can give you a color change cheap about $1000. |

I helped my buddie do his, got it all done for under 500, that also included buying all the equipment ... So any time i want mine painted or what not, all I have to do is spend like 200 bucks or so on paint.

dude my friend paid $230 to change his integra from black to electric blue from maaco. now they painted his keyholes and his radiator somewhat because they didnt tape it off but other then that. Its a definite 10foot car, anycloser and you see where they didnt tape stuff off.
