Not really. Most reputable places charge 4-5k to paint the entire car inside/out. With paint work you get what you pay for.

Part of it is where you live as well. Different states have different labor rates.

Thanks. I know quite a few people that scoffed at the price of my paint job, and MOBworks prices in general, but these are the same people that have either had to paint their car multiple times or just put up with orange peel, runs, chipping, and fading because they got a "deal". The $3,000 I paid was completely worth it imo. It turned out amazing. Not to mention, Miguel puts a lifetime warranty on his work. So as long as you have the car if you have a problem with the paint or workmanship he'll fix it for free. MOB

To me, im very picky when it comes to paint, I like my **** smooth and shiney like if its from the factory, lots of cars ive seen painted have alot of waves on the doors, and wen they get buffed you see the marks and the uneven coats of paint. But from what Ive seen this place looks like they do a legit job.

Only if they had a legit body shop like these guys, id get my car painted pronto
