Thats going to depend on alot of different things. Who does it, what material they use, what work has to be done (body work, bad existing paint etc). I would expect anywhere from $1500-$3000. I know thats a broad range but its going to depend on all of the variables. Make sure whomever does it uses a good quality basecoat/clearcot system. Good luck.

It's worth your time and patience to wait and find the color you want.
