Default Got my estimate! Stripe pics too please!

So after hearing about 8500 for single stage... i was appauled... finally got to another guy today and setup my appointment.... $3800.00... They are completely sanding it down... primer... paint... clear... doing an arctic white with a baby blue pearl... with two midnite metallic blue stripes..........

Anyone have pics of stripes? from the rear... trying to figure how i want them ran with the spoiler...

just know that you WILL get what you pay for with bodywork... Prep is 95% of the paintjob. (I used to work at a body shop)

yeah i know that... but 9000 for paint is ridiculously insane... 4000 is still fairly high.... ive been to these guys before though... they do nice work.... as far as body goes... it pretty much fine as long as they sand and clean it right its straight... they have a good name for themselves soo... it shoudlw ork out good

I highly recommend that you get an SS spoiler to balance out that cowl hood in the rear.....the stock is way to boring and subtle, especially with your hood....just get one! once its all said and done, you wont regret it!
