Re:Paint Job
your best bet is to go down to your nearest maaco and see the work they do... ask a lot of questions and check out the cars that they have painted all these bad experiences from maaco have been coming from one area (i read it on the internet somewhere) but the one i went to when i wanted my car painted was a good one they used 2 stage paint and for $500 they would do the whole car just go see for yourself if you like your work...i just decided to sell my car instead of fix all the ---- on it cause im a bitch

800$ for paint primer sealer clear and all that good stuff you need to paint a car.
1000$ for body work that me and a friend did. including 2 new fenders and 2 new rear 1/4 panels. and a sunroof panel. all the materials etc.
0$ to prep the car and kit all by myself
400$ for the car to be shot by a friend who is a professional. including jams.
0$ for the car to be buffed. (still isn't but thats free for me)
$1200 is damn good for just paint. anything under $800 u know u are looking at shitty piant. i used Dupont, PP&G is good also.

Re:Paint Job
a paint job is 3000-4000 euros here thats why I'm painting my own, and it will still cost me about 2000 euros because of material in Germany, I still have a lot of prep to do, plus install side skirts and lips, shaved side moldings and roof gutters, dents in door and roof, my hands are full. wish me luck...
