Good Paintshop
Okay so i plan on getting some new body mods hopefully around the first of november and of course im not gonna put them on until i know of a few good paintshops to check out...im looking at having my whole car buffed down to get rid of the swirl marks and have it completely repsrayed. About how much will this run me? im thinking somewhere around a grand or two. Im gonna have the APR GT Front Air Dam (unless i cant get that front end and lip from bouford and the INGS+1 rear with CF side diffusers (not painted).

if my kit gets here this week ill let you know how much i get quoted.
i expect to pay at a minimum $2500 for a complete respray of the exterior only minus HT.
note: i have a front bumper, sides skirts, door caps and rear add ons.
depending on when my car gets in the shop, you have dibs on the front bumper and lip.

im not sure how it will look but i ings rear is a nice bumper. paint the bottom black so it looks diffuser like.
my only issue is im staying single exhaust so i think it will look weird.

i believe the grounding wires are a gimmick but others beg to differ.
i've never installed or used them. there should be a member or two who has used these before.

I'd do it for cost of materials and booth rental, but I cannot find my good gun to spray with plus I'd want to rent a better booth. If you want a respray, don't buff anything... Just wasting time, also keep in mind supplies and booth time would be 800 dollars+ not including labor so a 1k paintjob won't happen at a reputable shop
