how much does it cost to paint a car....

with some nasty design's and a new color like blue

depends on the body shop. you could go anywhere from a 100 dollar macco piece of shit spray job (they don't even wash the car before hand) up to an unlimited amount of money. in boise, idaho at a very good body shop it would cost me about 2 grand to get my car sanded, dents pulled, badges removed, and new paint (same stock color) sprayed on.... that is their top of the line job that they put the most time in. the paint alone was like 600 bucks. this question totally depends on the quality of work being done.

A Full color change with door jams, hatch jam, and 1" under the hood will cost you around $1000-$2000 without the body work. Add the graphics (airbrushed into the paint) $1500.

where did u get those prices?!

ive seen $100,000 paint jobs that had the airbrushing, it all depends on how much color, clear coat, time, effort, and workmanship goes into the work.

From my painter :D
Thats what he usually charges.
I'm having my graphics done for $800 canadian.
And the paint job got quoted from a friend of mine that works at Brasso Nissan $1500. But thats WITHOUT the body work. So I'm gunna have to add another grand for that.

price also depends on what color it is
