Default How much did you pay for your paintjob?

I'm looking at getting my car fully repainted sometime in the spring. I just had alot of bodywork done to it, i.e. wheel well rust, buncha dings, and a new front fender. Not even a month after I got that done I did this little sucker right here, then touched it up...




I don't really want a colour change or anything, just a fix on that scratch (Would it be cheaper to just get a new bumper and repaint it and then fix the well?) and a general makeover for the car. When they fixed the car the only repaired some of the panels that were messed up, I shoulda gotten a full repaint then... now some of the body looks like a mirror and the rest still has the 12year old swirl marks and wear.

Do you guys have before and after pictures of your paintjobs and what'd it run ya? Thanks!

btw, heres my car now as is
