I have recently purchased a C1 body kit and am having it installed along with the installation I am repainting my car back to its origonal Factory Black color. A guy I met is charging me $800 for the 3 coats of Base and 4 coats of clear coat, it may be the other way around I am not informed when it comes to painting. He told me it will look like it did when it came from the Factory new. Is this a good deal for a paint job and will that be enough coats?
Thanks, -Brandon -------------------- ![]() |

that is a good cost for a paint job but i would check and see some of his past work......normally for a paint fob it costs 500.00 in materials alone....not trying to scare ya away from him but that seems a little odd that he's only charging you 300.00 for labor to put the kit on, prep the car, and paint it......just seems odd to me, also i have noticed that most painters don't wet sand or buff after it's painted...you may want to ask him about that too.....but if he looks like he does good work and is only gonna charge you that for all the prep, installation, and paint....i say right on, but definatly check first
