How much does paint cost is like asking how much is a car. (It depends) The answers for paint vary from $2K to the left and right "arm". It all comes down to how much work has to be done and how hard is it to get it down to the point that it can be taped off. (removal of windshield, wipers, lights, doors, etc) When i had my factory 5 painted I took them the body shell sitting on the body buck (wood frame with wheels) I had also done the majority of the body work, including smoth sanding the gel coat, primering and scratch coat sanding the body. They basically worked with what i had done and improved some parts that I as an non-professional body man had not completed to their standards. So long and short it depends on how close to paint ready your car is. I can easily see the 150 hours mentioned by Jody above.
