Re: Paint price

it's hard to give a estimate online due to the fact that every shop uses different materials and charges different labor fees. if you are on a budget go to maaco otherwise be in for 1000 - 5000

Re: how to prep sideskirts

there is a difference in between 600 and 800 grit. 600 will leave too many scratches that quite possibly will show through when you paint. if you like scratches under your paint then power to you.

make sure to use a fair amount of water when sanding.

if there is a ton of layers of paint you may need 400 wet > 600 > 800...
