Where to paint??

Post by 95EJ1 »

I am wanting to repaint my 95 coupe bask to black flaminco pearl. I got a couple quotes today just labor was about 1200-2000. I would buy paint but body work needs to be done mainly dents. Just small door dings and a cart from walmart. Does anybody know of any good and reasonably priced places?

Thanks for all the help. If you have pics of your car after it was painted or anyone you know please pm or email me them. Thanks

Do you happen to know their rates, or know what they would charge for stuff like that? Troy is like 2hrs away for me, or more. Thanks.

everyone is going threw the same times, so you cant expect people to work for free.

anyone that does it for a grand or around that isnt going to do a good job, or works for peanuts, there are alot of variables that play into a quote and if you call and say all i have is a few dents, thats fine but there is always more...like rock chips all over the front end fenders and wheel wells, thats the reason for the 4k quote, and if you really want to to know whats involved its tearing the whole car down all the bumpers lights, moldings, handles, glass etc. etc. so there are no tape lines at all. honestly if you didnt show up for a quote with your car you get the worse case scenario quote.
