it depends on the quality you want. basic yellow paint with a clearcoat probably 1000-1500. but id have them sand everything down, do a base and several coats. so to answer ur question.. an average paint job 1500 a nice paint job upwards of 3000.... then it always depends on the color too, whether you want to keep it the yellow you have, or go with one of their custom colors. if youre going to get a paint job, its better in the long run to get the good one now, instead of an average one now and then a good one. just my 2 cents

Lol GTAutovert your joking with him right? On my old V6... To buy and ship the front bumper(cobra R as well) And have it sanded and everything and to factory color it was $1100.... that was after paying $500 for the bumper through them...

So to get the front bumper done i would guess AT MOST ....$6-800 maybe?

i wasnt kidding. but if he wants a monochromatic paint job... that can run 4000. i meant 1000-1500 for the entire car.. i didnt think youd want to do one piece at a time, if there is any variation in color, it will look horrible. id just get an entire body kit, paint all of it the same color, and have a new job put on the car.

+1 you shouldn't pay over that just to have your bumper spayed and put on. If they go over 700 i'd seriously look elsewhere.
