Paintjob time Options

[NaderG]

I know this question been asked a million time , but i still need to ask it :
How much should i expect to pay for a good paintjob ? i dont want o pay over 2k and i dont want to paint it somewhere too cheap ( maaco , earlscheib) .... so how much quality should i expect for the price ...etc

if your buget is under 2k, your not gonna get a show quality job.
1500-2k should get a professional looking, decent job.
no runs, sags, or surface imperfections.
the low side will get you less cut and buff time.
the more you pay, the better the prep work should be. THAT is where all the work in a paint job is.
applying the paint is the easy part.
for your everyday average paint job, with some minor door dings ect, i would expect to pay ~1500$ for a full basecoat clearcoat complete, the more you want them to remove, IE windows ect, expect that price to jump up a BUNCH.
if you have ANY peeling or "checking" of the clearcoat, expect HIGH estimates.
