i would guess many times the dealer where you got the car would charge more to paint something than a normal body shop would. the good thing about having the dealer paint it though, you have a better chance of getting a true color match. I would guess around 150-200 for a body shop and 200-300 for a dealer; just a wild guess though. just dontgo to maaco [:'(]. i had a hood scoop painted at a bodyshop afew years ago and it cost around 120 to have it done and they did an excellent job.

I would go with a private body shop. Most dealership body shop employees punch a clock and get paid by the hour. That means it could take forever to get your car back. A lot of private shops get paid by the job and tend to be a little more hungry for your money.
