You can get it dun much cheaper if you prepair it all youself, eg sand it doiwn get it straight as a nana, and then they just paint it.

have u tried actaully ringing a paint and panel shop or crash repairer?? they usually know what they charge seein its their job, just my opinion. i got a silver GSR with a few little trolley dents (fudging work). took the car to crash repairer, with a respray to Cyan Metallic Blue and dents taken out incl. preperation he said $2400. also if i rubbed it down myself it would only cost $1900, so the pennies are being saved.

i'd agree, rubbing it back and smoothing it out aint rocket science ;)

you could even primer it yourself if you could get your hands on a compressor, even one of those little beavers would do it, cos you'd have to rub it back again anyway ;)

Yeah, I was quoted $450 for the painting if I did all the perperation work myself. I had to buy paint as well.
