Why not make some phone calls and compare prices. They will vary.

Well no one around here paints cars. At least that I know of, so I was just wondering.

A 'cheap' paint job usually STARTS around $2000-2500.

just about every body shop or dealer paints cars, like previously mentioned your best bet will be to open up the yellow pages and call around.

Depends on where you're at kid...been painting cars for 20 years... no color change, no jambs, you can still get a bc/cc job done for under $2000
