Wouldn't it be kind of expensive to repaint a whole car?

I haven't but I know two guys here at school who had theirs painted. One is an Accord EX painted an orange, it looks sweet and then another guy has a type R integra who painted it that Honda green color so it's a real sleeper. I think it was better when it was black, but he seems to like it.

yeah for $450, that's a Macco job. They just paint overtop of your original paint.

If you want to get it done right... it'll be in the $3000 and up range.

I think baller is accurate with the pricing, painting takes a long time and it doesn't seem like $450 is that much..

civicballer is right, its a lot fo work, u have to remove all the interior and engine to get it done right, maco just gets the exterior u have to remember that theres alot of interior paint on the car too, color change is very expensive. BTW BLUEENVYs civic looks soooo good in that color that should have been the blue instead of the other one that honda had.. so badass

Electron Blue Pearl 7th gen, so sweet.

i kinda got my car repainted. I redid the hole drivers side and then had them shoot 2 more coats of clear on the hole car. that way i have a darker silver then stock. and also it has a blue haze to it. Its not all done yet. I am going to get the rest done when my kit comes. Looks pretty sharp.
