4k for stripes is outrageous.

7k for the car isn't too far out there, depending on the quality of the work, and how much prep the car requires..

A quality paint job starts at about 7. It would be far cheaper to sell and buy one in the color you like.

$7K is about right for a quality paint job if they paint the jambs, engine bay, trunk, etc. The paint on my Road Runner was $8K, but that included minor bodywork. It's just about perfect.

Whoever said it before was right - trade your 'Stang in for the color you want, it will be less expensive. Don't repaint it.

And how do you PROPERLYpaint an engine bay without removing the engine and everything else[8D]?? Not!!

On a black car, you could leave the engine bay alone since the classic Stangs had it black... That isas far as a strech you could get with a color swap.

And MAACO... Please guys, don't bring that name on this board:eek:.
Just the tape job from these guys makes me cry.
$500 don't even cover the materials for a decent paint job, lol. Especially if it's red [8D].

I hate the color of my stang I want to change it to black or blue or something. right now its torch red. How much does a paint job cosT?
The cost to do what you are asking (the right way) would be $15k in mechanicals, $5k in paint for a cost of $20k. ....and then thevalue of the car would be reduced immediately; Think you'd better trade.

Why did you buy it if you dont like it....(don't say price, because if you look hard enough you can find one you want in the color you want) I think your best bet at this point would be to trade it in for what you want. Good luck finding what you want.

When this happened to my car the damage was basically deep scratches and small dents. The total bill was just over $6,000 for the complete repaint and repair. Also went with the darkest shade of black [sm=bling.gif].

My paint and installation of my Cervinis kit (which should be done at the end of this week!!!) is costing me 5k. It is being done by Hot Rods and Hobbies in Signal Hill, CA. He does excellent work and so far it looks amazing.

Oh ya, and I got stripes too.
