Quote to repaint trunk, too much?

Sup guys, I have to repaint the trunk on my g35 since the clear coat is pretty much ruined. I was quoted $350, is this normal or a little too high?

That's actually fairly cheap. My front bumper was $450 (of course my paint is 3-stage).

Understand that, besides intensive prep work they have to buy a certain amount of that color paint. They more than likely don't have your color code on hand. Then with older cars, they will have to blend the new paint with the older paint on the nearby panels. It's a lot of work.

That's about what it costs to get a trunk lid repainted, done right!

Don't go with the cheapest quote. You get what you pay for
