Default Guesstimate on how much to completely re-paint 90 EF Hatch

I have a 90 Hatch that's in great condition, but the paint on the roof is peeling pretty bad. I think the previous owner had a coat added to the old paint rather than having the car primed for new paint.
It's peeling like rubbery plastic basically. Anyways, the vehicle is white, and I'd like to get it entirely painted. I want to keep the car white, and there's a little bit of rust at the bottom of the door jams
that I'd like to have taken care of. Aside from that, there's a few scratches and minor dents, but nothing crazy. If you've had your EF or CRX painted at a shop for similar reasons, can you please let
me know how much you paid? What type of paint was applied, and whether there was a warranty? I've done some google searches, but apparently the prices vary greatly when it comes to the size
of the vehicle getting painted. Since an EF hatch is practically one of the smallest vehicles in the world, I feel like I can get the deal I'm looking for...

I added an image of what the vehicle looks right now, but you can't see the paint that's peeling on the roof in this image.

Thanks!

It completely depends on where you take it, what kinda quality you want, and how much body work is needed/wanted.

Find a couple of privately owned shops near you with good reputations, ask around. Then go and get some estimates.

Looking good. Did you watch the manufacturer "How To" for learning?
