That sounds about right if the quality is really good. I got mine painted/installed for around $300 but quality is eh...I need it repainted already.

Where is a good place for new pain job? My car has lots of oxidation and rust so I am thinking of taking it to Maaco but I don't wants to spend more than 1k for it. Where did you guy go for 300-450 pain job near Sacramento area? Thanks

A "Deal" isn't always a good thing in the end!

Quality work done in CA. for $450= is a fair price! You might find someone that would do the job for less but you may have issues and need it repainted!

Elite body shop or diamond body shop. Both do great work. But diamond shop is extremely busy. A little hard to get it done if you are in a rush. But it is a little cheaper. I do see lot of high end car there. Audi R8. GTR. Etc......hope that help
