    I would say no less than $2,000, I wanted to know how much a custom job would be when I got my tints and they said starts at $4,000 so yea $2,000 sounds like a good hook up price.

    i think it all depends on how you know your painter! I know a guy that has his own shop so he gives me and my friends the best deal ever. He specializes in High end cars. He had a bentley in the other day. my friends Z got hit and need a fender/bumper/hood fixed and painted and got it for $600.

    What? No super special flake? WACK!!!! lol j/k.

    I hope you are getting a super hook-up and that whoever's doing your paint is a damn good at it. Cause I've seen "high-quality promised results" and a "crazy good deal" turn into crap in a matter of weeks.

    Unless you're getting some sort of homie hook up you are going to most likely be shocked at how much this is going to be (if you're going to a "GOOD" shop). I would say in the 2k range. The amount of taping and masking to paint your roof and window trim is going to add up! GL though!

    Well i cut some things off the list. This is what the car will have.

    Paint entire front grill shiny black not including rings
    Paint roof shiny black including submarine fm antenna
    Paint wing mirrors shiny black
    Rear piece by trunk lid Shiny Black
    Paint door blades Quartz Grey
    Paint Rear Exhaust Valence Shiny Black
    Remove amber indicator in headlights
    Paint side chrome shiny black

    BTW the guy knows how to paint, he has done some crazy cars, chopped jettas to two doors, widebodies, restorations, so im not worried about that.

    Well a straight paint job for my Wrangler w/ NO body work is 1400. I am going to say it would usually be about 2k but with a hook up about a grand.

    If it's that cheap, hook me up with the guy cuz the wrangler still needs a paint job BAD!

    I dunno about that man. A friend of mine got his car painted by a guy who apparently won numerous awards at the LA Autoshow, SEMA, etc. for paint and paint quality... Yet he totally messed up on my friend's car
