Default paint

How much would it cost to have my entire car repainted in either a metallic or a pearl type paint?

It's about 2500-3000 here in MI, but I am sure that it's much cheaper over there in CA.

How is your paint quality. what would you give it 1-10. also how is the reflection. is it sharp or dull.

Color changes are a bit more if you want them to paint the engine bay, and insides. A car would otherwise look very goofy with a black exterior and teal engine bay.

don't forget the door jams!

in So. cali, it's around 1800-2000 for 2-stage pearl. if you want them to remove all windows and do a really good job, expect like 3000.

for a body kit only, about 600.
