paint job cost and where to get it
hey, if you havent heard my accord was totaled, but now i want an mr2 turbo and i will be looking at one tomorrow and the guy said the car needs to be repainted, and i was wondering if you guys could help me find out where to get a good quality paint job to the same color of the car (red) and how much would it cost, and i was also wondering how much would it cost to change the car to black with good quality paint job but i also want the door jams painted black, and wondering how much that would be,
thanks
by the way i live in yorktown so around here, but i will be willing to go to va beach for good paint job

you should check out CRXGEN2's friend's work. considering his business is starting to roll, he would probably hook you up decently. but dont hold that against me

you could go to earl scheib and get apaint job for $300 with a 5 year warranty, thats what im doing. its on jefferson, its in the phone book. you dont need the door jams or engine bay done if your keeping it the same so that should work fine, and they dont do shit jobs either theyr actually pretty good.

"you can shit in a box and stamp it with a guarantee"
Remember that in the movie tommy boy.
THats exactly what your getting for 300 bucks. Believe me, ive been a painter now for almost 6 years and the materials i use alone come to 400-600 bucks just for paint.
All they are doing is running over your car with a scuff pad, Shooting it with some single stage paint and stamping a warranty on it. They take no time what so ever in a 300 dollar job. Just think.....it cost 34$ an hour now for labor. Shit...the materials hes using on 300 dollar job has to be only about 150 bucks. The rest goes to labor, and paint time. (paint time is 18$ an hour)

You only want 3 coats of clear MAX on your car. The paint doesnt get anymore glossier after 3 coats. Your only effecting the durability of clear because is so thick. The more mils of paint, the more prone to rock chips and peeling.
