you get what you pay for too. I have seen alot of 500 dollar paint jobs and straight ASS (they think its good). any good painter that is known for show quality paint is going to cost. award winning paint that is. so hopefully you find the rite guy that will do you rite. there are guys who paint choppers (fenders 2 and just a tank) for a 1000 and up for just three parts. but they are known for show winning paint and you know you shit will be rite when done...

4 hours tops of spray work. thats plenty of base coat and a few clears. It hasn't even been cut yet or waxed, so you tell me if it looks like rattle can. Im not doubting his abilities to do amazing paint or chrome, but $850-1k is damn near larceny for spraying bike "basic black"
