my car was recently splattered w/white paint from sum *******. now i need to get my car repainted in the rear bumper, spoiler, roof, trunk and right quarter panel. its a milano red gsr btw. i kno the dealership is gonna charge a shitload if i get it done there. any idea how much a good quality matching paintjob would cost to get these sections repainted? i have no clue on wats a good price to work with for these sections. and no i don't want to repaint the whole car. anybody in here can give me an idea how much i will be expecting to get charged?

haha broken space bar....well anyways some did come off but there is one section on the trunk and bumper where the paint left a huge mark. the red is now like a faded pink and there is no paint there....just left a huge fade mark when the paint was removed...that needs to be repainted...

 

yo roger just paint you whole car...and find a garage to keep it in...you seem to be a target for vandals

 

i kno

 

It all depends what kind of shop and what kind of paint. If you want it to match exactly I would tell the shop you want them to purchase a factory packaged can(this is more expensive). If not they will try to color match it as best as possible and because there are body lines between the trunk and bumper and the rest of the car it would be hard to notice a color difference especially with that red. Most good shops can match almost exactly but factory packaged paint is the closest way to the original factory color.

Cost to repaint the sections it would maybe run you $500+ to do it right. If you want the whole car painted you probably looking at $1500+. If you repaint the whole car you don't need factory packaged paint cause the whole car will be slightly different then the original color(not noticable, but still not exact).

The cheapest would be to get just the sections painted in a one stage(color and clear in one step). I don't know if you can get factory packaged honda paint in one stage but they could probably mix it. This would reduce your cost maybe $100+ for just the sections and around $300-400 for a whole car.

This prices are just estimates of what i could probably get it done for around here(but i paint myself so i don't have to worry about that). And remember you get for what you pay for with paint jobs. For a really good total repaint don't be suprised to pay over $2000.
