How much paint would it take to paint the front bumper, rear bumper, trunklid, wing, hood, and front fenders?

If someone could hook me up with some cheap factory paint that'd be sweet too. Or if someone knows how much factory paint costs per gallon?

Who's had their front end painted and how much did it cost?

I've decided that it will take far too long to spray the entire car two-tone primer and since I've already got all the listed stuff prepped, I might as well just get it painted factory Cherry Red Pearl.

AH3 cherry red is an expensive color, and very hard to match.. varies from place to place but on average its about 60 bucks a pint. Im not sure how much your going to need, maybe 3 pints? Might as well get the whole thing painted... as for me..? im thinking about duplicoloring my whole silvia front end Cherry red to kind of match the rest of the paint.. I'll let you know how much your going to need when im done with my paint project.

Nevermind, I test-fit the parts I have painted now and the two-tone looks SWEET. It'll take me until some time next week to get it all done, but the results will be worth it.
