a lot of that dtermines on what shop your looking for wher eyour located and the quality of the paint job. I was quoted at maaco for my cb 500 with 75 dollars a door jamb and if the prepping and primering was done i would get 175 off but that was for a mid level paint job i would have had to clear coat the car myself. On top of that the body comes into factor as well dings dents and stuff of that nature comes into play as well. I would suspect since its the winter time and hatches are generally smaller bodies it wouldnt be too expensive at maaco during this time period but again its maaco which ive seen good and bad come from it all depends on what you want how you want it and how much youre looking to spend
