Custom Dodge Viper Blue Paint Job

It's time for a new paint job, I'm interested in something very custom,like a dodge viper midnight blue. How much would a job like this cost,considering currently my car is sterling mist. Also,anybody know of any good paint shops in the New England area,I'm from CT. Thanks all,
Bob

Could be anywhere from 3-8 thousand dollars depending on if they repaint the engine bay and need to do any body work, etc. It can be done for a little less... usually the prep work is where they'd cut corners.

very good choice in color. I knew this shop around me affored me to get it painted in exact same (viper blue) for $3000. I'll do it later down the line when my factory paint wares out.

I think that it would look stunning in that color, as the 4th gen in that color that somebody posted recently looked sweet.

most people who wanna change body color want Viper Blue or some variation of that color. All i was saying was that his original comment about wanting a Viper Blue paint job is like everyone on here wanting or owning Evo-5's for their max.

so what dont you get? are you mad cause you have Evo5's and look like ever other 4th gen on the org

If my car ever gets a color change, I would go with some sort of copper or gold color.

Do your hos turn enough tricks to afford that? I like copper as a color, but even the pimpest pimp is too pimpy if he has a car like that!
