Re-painting car.

Can anyone give me a price check on how much it costs to get your car re-painted and finished to brand new? Have some rust spots and some paint missing in areas and would really like to have it all re-painted if possible.

Just a quick stab at a price from most regular body shops would probably be in the $3000-4000 range if it's done right.
 
If your good you could prep the car ur self, sand, blend, get rid of the rust just prime the bare spots, ship it out then ....ud just pay for paint. But any blemishes...Ur fault...LOL

Just a thought
 


You GET what YOU pay for remember that. I got a grand just in the front bumper, air dam, 300 in the trunk and 850 in the hood. The rest of the car is factory paint. So I would have to say MMMM 3500-4000.

In theory, it's not a bad idea. In reality, though, if he finds a shop willing to paint over someone else's prep work, it's likely the paint job will not be a good one. I can't imagine a shop that can do good work would be willing to rish their reputation on something like that.
 
I had a dent pulled out of my drivers side fender, and some cracks in the front bumper fixed. than had both the bumper and fender repainted. I had my father-in-law do it and it was about 400. But I had the family discount.
