hey all i was just curious as to how much a paint job would cost...

i know there are details like 2pac and acrylic ect... but i just wanted to know a ball park figure if any of u guys have had it done before...

say a 95 teg or prelude and white... just stock plain colour...

im just curious coz i went to a panel beaters the other day and they told me it would cost $6000 for a decent 2pac paint job coz they dont do acrylic nemore...

does that estimate sound right to u guys, as i havent sussed anything out yet but was just curious...

Paint jobs cost heaps if you want it done properly. With the quote you were given, what exactly was it for?

Yeah, but what was the quote for? Are they spraying it inside out? Engine bay? Or just an exterior spray?

If the car is already white, you wont need the door jams painted which will save you a few hundred. For about $2000 you can get a complete respray in 2 pac. That price of $6000 is a rip off! For that you can get a colour flip paint with door jams and engine bay painted!
Acrylic is cheap to do. Most whites on factory cars are acrylic anyways.
I have done a couple of cars my self and to tell you the truth, it costed me $140 for the paint (Acrylic), $100 for the clear (2 pac), and I had to buy some sand paper tape and newspapers. In total I did my cars for about $350. took me 2 days.

You idiot Pornstar! :D
All in all you should make a budget of $2,000 for a decent spray job. Make sure they use a clear coating as some acrylic jobs are left as is with no clear.
