You're looking at around $800+ just for a front end.

Might be more since it's pearl.

for that price you might as well save up a bit more and get the car repainted

$2,000 give or take for a decent full repaint.

I would say save up and get it done right the first time.

Full new paint job and have all your dings/dents taken care of making the car look like new.

I mean, that's if you care enough about your car.

good luck getting the pearl to match with the rest of the car, it wont be the same, thats why when i respray my car its going to a glossy base white...

Matching with just about any color is hard unless you're good at what you do.

It won't be 100% perfect, but 95% is close enough.

Which is why I say if you want just the front end repainted, it'll be expensive because they have to make it match.

Your average alley body shop won't charge nearly as much, but I can guarantee you it won't match at all.

It will cpst you anywhere from $800-$1400 depending on the brand of paint and since you want peral... well you know that isnt cheap
