Prepared my Mustang to the paint stage and then had a pro do the rest.

Well he put the first coat on and found some areas that needed attention.

Had to re hire the booth a second time after he and the panel shop boss spent a day going over my work.

No way would I do that again. Savings did not exist and I still think the end result was not worth all my effort and dollars spent twice.

My paint shop has quoted $7,000 Aust. (About $6,200 US) to repair, fill and paint my Cobra. I think thats a reasonable price.

Have checked out his work on four or five Cobras and importantly all owners are happy and Cobras look great.

I would suggest getting it done at a shop. I'm sure someone on this site can suggest a shop close by you - and give a reference.

cheers

Bernie
