What Should a Paint Job Cost?

[xlr8or]

I just recently painted my coupe myself. The total cost for all bodywork and paint supplies was right at $1400 using name brand products like PPG base/clear and Rage fillers. All supplies were purchased retail at the paint supply store, even sand paper. It's the same store the local paint shops use.
