Default Need Paint Estimate and Shop Recommendation.

Hey everybody,

I was wondering if there was anyone out there with experience in auto paint that could tell me roughly how much I'm going to spend for a paint job like this one that I photoshopped. Also does anyone have any recommendations on any shops to have this done at?

Before:


After: (Blue Paint will probably be matched to Blue Onyx Pearl)

I would say roughly 1500 or so, but it would depend on the color blue you chose. I recommend getting atleast 2-3 estimates before you make your decision.

So what does the color have to do with it?

I was way off on the price in my hopes and dreams. I was hoping for $500-700. I looked into a vinyl wrap once and that was going to be around $550 so thats probably why I was hoping for that price.

You can still pay about 500, just hit up Earl Schieb or Maaco. But I would still get the other estimates and look at thier work first.
The color plays a big roll, whether it will be a solid blue, a metalic blue or a pearl blue.
