I decent one maybe $800-$1500 if you find the right person

I don't think many of you understand how much it actually is. Sure you can get it done for cheap if you know a guy but if you gotta pay labor and everything. It will be guaranteed at most shops around 5 grand and higher. Unless you want it looking like crap opening your doors and engine bay and seeing different colors you gotta understand how long it takes. For a complete paintjob you need to remove the trunk, doors, hood, fenders. Mask off everything you don't wanna be painted. primer, paint, clear. Then the annoying process of wet sanding. Its a lot...
