Buying a used car for the wife but she wants a different color. How much should I budget for a good paint job from a reputable garage ? Any recommended paint shops ?

Recommended paint-shops ? I'd check your LOCAL Chamber of Commerce / Better Business Bureau / Yahoo! Local.
I've seen the paint jobs run from $200 (budget) to $650+ for GOOD basic paint job.
When I was younger and was buying used cars... I'd save money by doing as MUCH of the prep-work as possible myself !! Time-consuming and labor intensive YES, but saved lots of $$'s!! Filling Dings, Killing Rust, and doing the wet-sanding and primer.
YES, folks laughed at my car which was a giraffe of primer and bondo spots for 2 months, and then all primer for a month... but then my 1972 VW Dasher was a beautiful Jaguar Green !!
I HOPE others can give you better information.

no one who might do a perfect job might touch a motor vehicle for a repaint for $3 hundred-4 hundred. attempt interior the loads in case you choose a perfect job accomplished. and don't pay attention to the different guy or woman, particular you ought to purchase the paint etc for that value, however the kit etc needed and adventure?? you could result with a shoddy job. And one that cant even spell perfect or use perfect grammar, Who curiously works in "commercial"
