How much does it cost to paint a car?

I'm looking to paint my car sometime soon because the paint on my fender is peeling off. I also want to change the color from white to some type of blue. Any idea on how much it would cost to get a decent paint job that will be just as good as the factory paint?



Also what places in San Diego, CA are a good, reliable place to get your car painted at? (Someone who wont overspray tires, lights, windows, etc...)How much does it cost to paint a car?You can usually get a cheap paint job around 500.00. But if you want a nice paint job your looking more 900-1200. My brother in law does this for a living and I have heard him quote beforeHow much does it cost to paint a car?maaco...probably 3 grandHow much does it cost to paint a car?Don't go to maaco if you want a good job.



For a job that is as good as the factory paint you will be looking for at least $3k, probably more since you are changing colors.How much does it cost to paint a car?Quality costs.



You can get a job at Maaco for about $250. But it won't last the year.



Or go to a reputable body shop, and spend easily $2000 or more, and have a paint job like it was from the factory.



Since you're changing colors drastically, you also want to get the door sill, under the hood, all those parts that people never think about, because they only think about the outside of the car.



$2000, maybe more, for what you want to do.
