Go to the detailing section. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]

My answer for you is... $1,000.

Just call around to some shops where you live. They can tell you alot easier than we can. But anywhere from 700-1500 would be my guess.

The easiest way is to go to different body shops and look at the work that they do, and of you see someone with a nicely painted kit ask them how much they paid for the work that was done. in general prices are for the hour usually between $35-60 per hour, or for the piece, the more hard to get spaces the piece has , or the larger it is , the more you pay, it always seems to work out that way doesn't it????

P.S. If you see someone with a kit painted like sh%t, be sure to ask them where they had it painted so that you are sure not to go there[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]
