New paint job.

How much would I spend on repainting my car the same color. Which is the silver it comes in. I have a few dings as well as my front and rear bumper being a little chipped. A guesstimate please?

Depends on the shop. For a full body repaint it could be anywhere form $500 to a couple thousand. For extra bodywork I have no idea. Best thing to do is google local bodyshops, call them and ask

If you're paying $500 for a whole body paint job, then it's going to be peeling and bubbled in a year or less. A quality job will cost $2000-$3000.

Is the paint really that bad? It'll still cost a lot to repaint it the same color. Probably around 2-3k from what I've read. (and according to Artificial below lol)
