How much does it usually cost to get a paint job done on a car?

Question

I recently bought a black 1998 camaro coupe from an auction and it has a lot of minor scratches which look like someone keyed the car a while back and of course it has a few paint chips not really that noticeable only if you come up close but I really want to get it repainted black so it looks fresh. Can you tell me how much that might cost? It doesn't have to be exact but i'd like to know how much I need to save up for. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

you looking at $4,000 to get a great looking job with very little body work needing done.

Answer 2

A decent paint job with a couple of layers of clear will run you about 4 grand.

get estimates and ask to see cars in the shop and also ask for customer references.

Good luck.

Answer 3

I wouldn"t say it would be 4k, unless your going for show quality. you could probably get a good quality paint job for 1000 - 1500. Go to a few shops and get estimates. average all the estimates and go with the shop that came closest to the average.  oh yeah and ask to see some work that they have done and possibly some customer references

Answer 4

1500-2000 dollars for the body work and paint job. most auto body shops give free estimates, go get a few for a more firm price
