Getting the car repainted
Thursday, April 27, 2006 5:52 PM
Was thinking about getting my car repainted, mainly because of the ding, scratches, and dents that ive got all over the body. Still thinking about the stock color, but was wondering how much would i expect to pay for it? I also have a large dent on the pass. 1/4 panel thats gotta get filled in, and i also noticed a bondo crack (wish i woulda known she had be wrecked before i bought the car), and some pitting from it (like small craters). Also, really considering changing the rear end to an 03-05 setup, if i got those in black (which is what the car is now) would it be worth waiting to have that on before painting, or would it match well?

Mine was $1400 to get exactly what you are planning to do. Dents, dings, scratches all removed, drums painted black, and a full respray, same OEM color.

Ouch, sounds like more than i can afford atm, guess ill need to save up. My luck, i'd get the car repainted to have someone kit it, or something bang the paint. Do shops to little touchups, and if so, how is the cost on that vs repainting a whole car?

Go to some shops... and get an estimate. Cost varies from shop to shop, region to region, and quality.

we can not give ya a estimate online, what i can do is tell ya costs here in chicago
it will cost you more money due to the fact that someone else was in the car before
not only that removing and re installing even the glass all the parts everything

close to $6,000 around here that is cheap, and that is show quality, but again you will get what ya pay for
so go to different shops and get estiamtes


can i haz bondo
