Haha, a paint job takes more than a day I believe. Integra+border=no bueno. Unless it's someone you know or family.

3to 4k? If you wanna spend that much, go to Chapparone Auto Body & Painting. This place makes the car brand new. I'm talking bumper trims. They don't paint over it. They remove headlights and tail lights. They paint door jams. I was quoted 5 to 6k. I just went to Carcoa. I was completely satisfied. Going on 3 years and the paint still looks like it came out of the shop.

Now if your on a budjet, which I know your not, go to Carcoa. Its not a Macco place.

For 4K, you should be able to get it done at most reputable shops. Everyone has their own opinion about which shop is best (where their car was painted).

Eh not sure about going to Mexico for this, especially if he's willing to spend 4K.
