Oh I'm not looking to get anything painted. Just curious what people would pay for an inexpensive nice paint job.

Keep in mind this isn't Maaco quality, it's nicer.

looks good from 5 feet away. which is optimistic for a $350 paint job i think, thatd be more like a 15 footer.

i know a guy who works at a good paint shop in socal(wont say the name)

but i met him through a friend and a friend, charges about half of what the shop he works at charges.

get a quote from them, then ask him, and hell give you a very good deal.

the shop quoted him almost 1500 with some body work, and he only had to pay 6-7 or so.

no body work with just primer spray, paint and clear is 400.
