Man, you need to call around "IN" and see what you can find, no one here is going to be able to do it for you.

I went from this:




To this for: Paint27$(Green), 10$(black), Sand paper25$, Primer 25$, thinner20$, tape 15$ and newspaper(Free green sheets en espaniol), not to mention a bunch of elbow grease(free):

Well, the shady mexican dude down the street from me might hook it up for 4-500$. Maaco could match that, the hard core custom body shops around here can go as much as 10K$.

How much you wanna spend?

Paint can go anywhere from $200 (macco) to well over $6,000. Just remember that no matter what anyone tells you, there IS a huge difference in quality. A Macco job will last maybe a year and you run the risk of the car rusting as the crap paint peels off.

I am in the process of painting my car now. I have about $1,000 in actual paint material. I am putting high quality stuff from the primer to the clear. Having used cheap primer and clear before, I can tell you there is a huge difference in quality between the $60/gallon primer and the $200/gallon primer.

The price all depends on what quality you want. If you just want a cheap paint job that will look good from 20 feet away for a year, you can get away with a $400 job. If you want a great looking paint job that will last, I would figure $3,000+.

Hope this helps

I am an indiana resident, and have called around. And although I agree with you guys that paint jobs can be expensive. I found a reputable place called the BrickYard (look it up in the phone book) that said as long as it wasn't red, and I did the body work, they'd paint my car for $2000, and if there isn't any rust, they'd give me a life time warranty. I don't mean to disagree, but I think with a lot of work in prep, you can get a heck of a deal at this place!

Great Deal Eh, DacMan

Look on craigslist you might find a out of work painter that needs money.

From hanging around with a bunch of body guys, and the local supply shop... 1-3 grand (just for paint) gets you a 20 foot paint job.. 5-8k gets you a 10 foot, and 9-15k gets you a 5 foot... All depends on what you're into..

I paid $300 with the booth, and all the prep stuff and it came out 100X better than what was on the car..

With these prices for paint jobs, maybe I should have kept doing it for a living. I just did minor bodywork and paint but would only need to paint one maybe two a month and I could make a good living. I just occasionally do my cars nowadays when needed. Later.
