For a full paint job to be done right will run at least $1000 and go up from there, but you will pay for quality work.

a basic paint job was quoted at around $2000 to start for a full repaint including door and trunk jambs. when you start adding with metalflake, crushed glass, and candies the price goes up.

Kloverz has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Maccos will do a inexpensive paint job for you,

Thats all funny and good but I got my prices. It is an old EG, so its not going to be any where near nice in color. Just livable. I got a quote for a 3 layer clearcoat with door jambs from maaco for 600 US. Its not bad, I dont really care to look special.
