With my experience...ok but cheap job=1500-2500 or a nice job= 3000+. It all depends what you want..rust removal, welding, lots of body work, engine bay, jams etc etc.

Im talking in CAD btw

i guess it depends where u are at.
around here 1200 to 1500 can get a pretty ******* good paint job. no jams or major body work though.. but then again my paint cost me 800 and its about 4 years old and im still pretty happy with it when its washed up and out in the sun ,
but it depends on how much money u have to spend and if its worth it for you or what the car is used for . i personally wouldnt drop 2gs on a paint job for a DD ..

Milano red to Laguna Seca for me. Including all jambs except engine bay cost me about $1800. This was about 4 years ago so I don;t remember exactly. One thing I do know is that I got an amazing deal.

The guy who paints the cars for Saleen painted mine

The paint still looks great now.
