new body and paint?

Post by misfitsfiend »

say about 400$ to do everything, paint, fit, install. my shop would do it for less, but well, but most places its from 400 and higher, some places even 800$. :eek:

yeah man my car's going in for new paint soon and my shop is charging me $2100...but thats for the whole car sanded, stripped, and a good bit of clearcoat...plus it's not a stock paint (black with silver flake) but thats a good deal in my opinion...now if you're just talking about color-matching maybe thats not a bad idea since it doesnt need sanding and all...if they can color it the right shade that is
sold my civic for my mx-3 and its the smartest thing i've ever done
