Well, there it is. 2000 dollars for a complete paint job. Only body work they will be doing is replacing new driver's fender. It comes out to 800 for the paint and 1200 in labour. I still have to get the rust off the doors :smilie of old guy hanging himself: . How much would you/did you pay for this job?

My car is going into the shop monday. He is painting my car red (orginal color). Right now it is a lighter red which is why I'm going back to the original. Plus he is molding on my body kit (front and back bumpers along with sideskirts) along with some other sutff. When he gave me the quote it was $1000

But the guy is my cousin and cuts me some good deals. biggrin.gif
