I Am trying to get an idea for pricing, but i want to do fiji blue body with black top, on a fastback. Course' im broke nearly owning this car so not looking for crazy prices. But i figure some of you have done this before so any help with pricing would be great on some paint!!

True, but i have a place to paint and my buddy has a gun, the only thing ive painted is my hatch so hes gonna help, so im sure buying paint would be cheaper then 1 or 2 coats of maaco paint

First of all consider the prep work.

That is KEY! get a sand blaster or just pay like 5 of your friends to help you sand like a mofo.

You can buy the paint yourself and pay the shop too if youd like

Also if theres a sherwinn williams auto paint store near you, thats a good place to look.
