Default What did you pay or your paintjob? (crx)

I am looking to get my rex repainted. When i bought the car it was already painted. (The guy i bought it from painted it himself) But now it has a few chips on it and the is some tar under the doors. So i want to get it redone. I think it is the stock color yellow. What did you guys pay for your paintjobs? (Don't bother posting if you did it a maaco) I want to know the price for a "real" paintjob.
thanks

Post pics of your ghetto flat black car. I was thinking of flat blacking my car since the Maaco paint is ****. Plus flat is so sexy and stealth.

$3,700 this is not just the paint: supra tail light conver, is300 conver, shaved door handles, shaved ant, sparco fuel lid, 6 points roll cage(well i kinna come over and help him out too), fix the roof, and a dents around the car. The front end is twisted so he did that for free. What y'all think? The car is coming home this weekend. I;m excited.

maacos not bad at all...just don't get the cheap one (ambassador), of course thats gonna be bad. I paid like 450 for the ultra urathane and i am very satisfied..still looks the same after 3 years..anyone that spends more than $1000 on a paintjob for a crx is insane. Crx's are cool and i have 2 of them, but they are just a >10 year old economy car, not something that should have a ton of money poured into them with no hope of getting the $ back.
