Two 4th gens Just Painted

My car is getting sprayed today, black with a red pearl in it, my friend Josh who is on here somewhere got his back yesterday and it is white with a diamond and blue pearl and his looks unreal. Put pics up soon.

Well my total cost is yet to be determined because my car got a hit and run at a friends apartment about 4 weeks ago and that was about $3k on the back of the car, then 2 weeks later I got hit agian on the front passenger side which did $3k to the front of the car so I will only end up paying about 1k-1500k for the paint job because of dents and stuff like that. My buddy Josh, his is going to run him about $2500 because the body guy had to pull 63 dings out of it that they found once the car was blocksanded. I will have pictures of both accidents that my car was in and some pictures of the car striped and painted probably later tonight or tomorrow

63?!

63?!?!

and i always thought my car had lots of dings! $1500 still isn't bad for the full paint if thats what it ends up costing you. Are they sanding, priming, painting, and clear coating? Is the shop giving you a special deal because you know them or is this a normal price?

getting a little bit of a deal but not much, he just took how much paint work he was putting in to the two accidents that were covered on insurance and subtracted it from what i had to pay
