how much would a paint job cost?

Question

i have a '95 pontiac sunbird. the right back is kinda rusted and the paint is totally gone. about how much would it cost to gt it painted?

Answer 1

Anywhere from 100 dollars to 4 to 5 thousand dollars.

If you just have the shop sand it down, tape it up, and spray paint it, then you can expect the cost to be somewhere in low hundreds. But to do this right, you have to remove all the exterior parts, sand the whole car to bare metal, prep it, and paint, then sand, and paint, then clearcoat. It is likely to cost mid thousands.

It all depends on your expectations for the result.

Realistically though, knowing your car is 12 years old, already rusted and faded, a quick paint job will be appropriate. I'd expect 300 dollars or less from lower end paint places.

Just don't expect perfect job because you won't get it.

Answer 2

That is like asking "am I pretty?"
It is all in the eye of the beholder. You can get a cheap paint job for a couple of hundred bucks from a "shade-tree" mechanic (your paint may have a couple of leaves in it tho). Or you can pay a dealer about two grand for the best paint. Independant shops are all over the place on price in between. You may just have to visit a few local shops and ask. But be sure to ask around to find who does a good job.

Answer 3

expect to pay around 2 grand for a good paint job possibly more if they have to strip it.Shop around get a few estimates look for a shop that's clean and well equiped with a knowledgable staff while at the shop see if they have cars there you can look at to check the quality of their work or just go to maaco and get the ambassador anything is better than nothing just make sure to take care of your paint once it's done .Wax your car on a regular basis,wax the head lights and tailights too,keeps 'em from turnin yellow.You can also do all the glass except the windsheild,rain-x for that then armor alll or Meguiars for the rubber trim ,flat black,and tires

Answer 4

THAT WILL DEPEND ON YOU. THE LAST PAINT I HAD WAS ON A 95 DODGE CARAVAN FOR $469 FROM MACO. THEY DO GOOD WORK. THE MOREBODY WORK THEY HAVE TO DO THE HIGHER THE COST. BUT IF YOU REALLY LIKE THE CAR MONEY SHOULD BE NO PROBLEM. FIX IT UP. OR YOU COULD TAKE THE REALLY CHEAP WAY AND BUT CANS OF SRAY PAINT AND DO IT YOURSELF AND LIVE WITH WHAT YOU GET. MY REAL ADVICE IS GO TO MACO AND GET A FREE ESTIMENT ON THE COST.

Answer 5

no one who might do a desirable pastime might touch a automobile for a repaint for $3 hundred-4 hundred. attempt interior the loads in case you like a desirable pastime achieved. and don't pay attention to the different individual, sure you need to purchase the paint etc for that value, however the techniques etc mandatory and adventure?? you will finally end up with a shoddy pastime. And one that cant even spell desirable or use desirable grammar, Who curiously works in "commercial"
