I redid my EM1 a few years back and the total bill was $3500.00 but there was a little body work too.

I did a whole color change on my coupe 2yrs back. done by pros at a body-shop upstate. they painted eveything except the engine bay (cheaper to DIY). me and my boys prepped the car which dropped the most the price. 1G for everything and lifetime guarantee on the whole job.

Yes, I got a lifetime warranty as far as defects of any sort. Most reputable shops will give you some type of written warranty. I think the money I paid was well worth it.
