Paint Cost

I was wondering how much it usually costs to paint a rear bumper and side skirts. I got a quote for about $1000 to change the color of the parts from PG to OB with the valence and parts of the side matted black. Is this a good price or should I keep searching for a new shop?

I think that $ is wayyyy to steep. I was quoted $1,300 to do the entire nose of my car. Im going from black to black but I doubt its more expensive to spray it a different color.

Speaking of paint...here's my ride getting painted as we speak.

You're repainting the WHOLE car? What was wrong with it?

Someone vandalized it. Insurance paid for the job. All I had to pay was the 500$ deductible...well worth it, esp for a black car.

Damn. I didn't know they actually strip the whole car and start from scratch. Must be quite a costly repair.

that's about right for a quality shop. I think I paid close to that to paint my Zele front and sides. And it was from fiberglass to paint... sanding, primer and new color will be more. I see you're in D.B., PM me and I'll try to get you a deal at DTM in El Monte, they do a lot of Sema cars and I know them well.....

If you dont care about quality Macco will hook you up for about 300
