    Hey all,
    I was just wondering if anyone had an idea of how much a full body paint job would cost.
    Thanks

    Call your local shops and find out.

    Maaco will do a cheap paint job if you do all the prep and primer.

    I called the body shop I use here. They are independent, but do great work. They always have high end sports cars and such there and have a reputation with the gear head crowd. They told me a paint job for something like my 07 GXP would be $5,500 for the same color and a color change would be more.

    I am sure there are places that are cheaper and still do good work. There are places that will be very cheap, but you tend to get what you pay for once you get down to a certain price range. Also remember that sometimest he savings is no the quality of their work, but the quality of the paint they use. Paint can vary significantly in price and quality.
