New paint job?

Redline · January 26th, 2007, 03:43 PM

I looked at alot of your guys paint jobs and noticed how much better they are then mine which is a stock silver 00. How much would it cost to get a nice dark blue or black paint job and how long does it take them ?

Sonic04 · January 26th, 2007, 03:45 PM

About 1500 For a good Job and it could take about a week

GreenFaleen · January 26th, 2007, 03:46 PM

a 5 days to install my body kit and paint so 2-3 maybe. 1700 for same color changing color of the car will be about 3500.

How much is just paint? My girlfriend's friend owns a customs shop and said he would paint my car for free if I just bought the paint

GreenFaleen · January 26th, 2007, 03:50 PM

umm thats hard to say matters what color you get and if you want it mixed or order one from ford you can spray right out of the can.

Compy386 · January 26th, 2007, 03:52 PM

I was thinking just a nice shiny black

GreenFaleen · January 26th, 2007, 03:55 PM

if your car is already black won't be a problem you'll need to get a quote for a real price estimate but if they have to change the color it will be a lot of work. removing interior taking off pieces taking out all the carpet and dash and dorms ect. if you get it done right that is. But I wouldn't want to open the door of a black car and see blue.

Compy386 · January 26th, 2007, 03:57 PM

It's already black, it's just got a lot hairline scratches from bushes and tree limbs and I want it to look new again .

Redline · January 26th, 2007, 04:02 PM

Well I don't want like color changing paint or any thing like that. So how much for a nice black color, like stock ?

No I meant changing the color of your car. not color changing paint. If you go silver to black you'll be looking at about a week and 3500 dollars.

Redline · January 26th, 2007, 05:41 PM

Why so much? Lol I don't have the money for 3500 on paint. what's the cheapest paint I can have done then?

GreenFaleen · January 26th, 2007, 05:52 PM

the same color as you your looking at about 1500-2000. If you change color they pretty much have to strip the car. on a same color they just paint the outside. example opening a the door of a black car and seeing a silver dorr jam

xxrals22xx · January 26th, 2007, 06:14 PM

wellif ur getting it done by ur girlfriends friend and just buying the paint like black is pretty cheap

texas_mustang · January 26th, 2007, 06:57 PM

dude, the reason its so expensive, is because they have to paint the ENTIRE car. everything from inside engine bay, to inside sills. inside trunk. the entire frame. or youll look like a dumbass with multicolor parts.

232stang · January 26th, 2007, 07:35 PM

remove the paint yourself. makes it much cheaper. my friend used brake fluid -_- it removes paint like nothing and its cheap

Compy386 · January 26th, 2007, 07:59 PM

So how much is just paint and where exactly would I find it?

speck96 · January 26th, 2007, 08:22 PM

black paint is the cheapist color you will need base coat clear coat and hardners and reducers you can order it from any o reillys part store the brand they sell is nason it is a branch of dupont and is good paint you can get a kit with all you need for 2 to three hundred buck

Ninjawafers! · January 27th, 2007, 12:30 AM
