usually when u do a color change it is the same price i know the reds color cost more but your not doin that. all depends if u want jams and under the hood done and how good the painter is.........the more money u spend the better outcome unless u know the right people

Cheapy cheap around 500.00 and expect it to last about a year tops.
A real paint job with little to no body work (dents) plan on around 4000.00
Hopefully you know someone or you know someone who knows someone and can get a deal. I'd save up and get a real paint job..not a quicky scuff and spray.

A place in my town will prep and spray with paint for $250.Probley looks like crap when they get done though.I think you get what you pay for.

I'd agree with the above posts. My old man has been doing body work for over 40 years. You get what you pay for! Color changes are spendy if you do it right..which means tearing the car down so that you have no tape lines.

the best thing you could do it go on local forums or talk to local tuners or people who have got there car painted in your town, there are brand name places that charge up the *** and do a crappy job..the best thing is find the guy in your town that does it out of his guarage for dirt cheap but its amazing, theres a guy around here that does that..he paints corvettes out of his guarage and they look amazing
