Paint question


So I could easily ask so many other places but im sure some of you have gotten your cars painted, what did it run you, roughly and did you tell them to paint everything?
I was washing my car and noticed the clear coat was coming off, its scratched everywhere and the bumper i just got painted is already chipping, and so is my side scoop, so im starting to get pretty furious with the looks of my car

It will be atleast a $2000.00 or so, I would say. Especially if you want it done right.

Have the bumper and side scoop repainted and the rest of the car fully detailed. That should take care of cratches and swirl marks.

+ 1 on having the car buffed etc, and your scoops and bumpers will always get chips.... its just the nature of actually driving your vehicle oh and also the hood, only way around it is getting 3m tape shield on stuff but then you have to deal with looking at the tape...

i had mine painted last sept for 1500, but ended up trading products for labor and got out of it really cheap, i had it painted 03 mystichrome and the car looks amazing everybody likes the color and the car, but now after driving the car every day since then it has dings and scratches all over b=not bad but enough that i know are there but with the color changing colors it looks worse, Im thinking i should have just painted it white like i wanted but changed my mind at the last min. maybe this fall ill change it again my new pole barn with downdraft should be done my aug.
