    Hi everyone..
    I was wondering how much would it cost to repaint my whole car(including bumper)? There are some dents and quite a lot of rust. I was thinking of "banana yellow". What do you guys think?

    1-3 thousand for a good paint job. Then you have the 500 dollar cheap jobs. Im thinking about 2,000 for a good paint job, rust repair and dents will cost extra of course. Sounds cool a Yellow 4th gen! Go for it!

    Well a 300-400 paint job usually is no clear coat jobs. Like Maaco paint work "Not that good". You might be able to get a descent job at 800 or so, look around and see what kind of work they do, never hurts to ask to see what shops want.

    I know if I get my car repainted Im going to pay atleast 1,500 or so. I want the paint work to look like glass. Some people arent that picky smile

    eric was just about on the money. it should be at least $1000 for a decent job. another problem with macco is they don't fix dents on the cheap paint jobs. they just shoot paint over rock chips and everything.

    keep in mind, you're basically paying the painter $40/hr shop rate.
