Default I need some price quotes guys on some mechanical work!

Ok, here are the list of things that need to be done to my car, If I could get some prices that I should expect to pay on average I'd appreciate it. (By the way my descriptions of the jobs may not be 100% accurate on the exact name, so please bare with me) The car is a 1990 Accord LX 4dr Auto.


#1 Brake fluid front and rear needs to be flushed and re-filled, etc.
#2 Tranny fluid flush/refill
#3 Power steering fluid flush/refill
#4 Tuneup
#5 Exhaust (Not too sure how much needs to be done, I think some pipe(s) are rotting)
#6 A nice new coat of paint for the whole car (White, Economy, nothing fancy)
#7 A new hood
#8 Front quarter panel left side

Thanks all for the input!

Whats wrong with you? You cant do #1-3 on your own? I suggest getting under the car and learning about it.. The first 3 are great starters.

Hood and Quarter Panel would roughly cost you $400-$500.. Painting the entire car depends on how much prepping it needs (Labor Cost). It all depends on the bodyshop you goto. My advice, if you want an economy paintjob, hell.. , take it to Maaco.

Yeah, my thoughts.

Jiffy Lube or Xpress Lube or whatever you have there should do #1-3 for a small fee. I never mess with changing the tranny oil in my civic. It's $20 for drain and refill where I go. I'd rather pay $20 than be covered in oil.

If your hard on your car, make sure you change the tranny fluid regularly. Cheap insurance, trust me.
