How much is to change colors? Just curious how much people spent...
Paint JOB - 6G Celicas Forums
Done right or done maaco style.
Anywhere from $1000 to $8000 depending on how much u want done and the color.
I got quoted at $5G for a complete color change which included door jambs under the hood, trunk, completely fitting the kit perfect, molding and shaving pieces fixing any dents in the car.

Anyone know any good paint people in Diego or in LA area?
I paid equivalent to $1,600 or so for my color change, and body work such as fixing tons of dings, shaving the holes in the front bumper, etc.

Wow that's a good price. Too bad your up north so I can go to where you went.
i'm fixing to get mine done. Probably costing 1K or under, free paint is great.

I got a quote for $4000 and up. The guy looked at me like I was crazy for wanting to get a color change on a car that has 217000 miles. He suggested I take it to maaco or just rub it with some compound and then wax it .
maaco can give you a color change cheap about $1000.

I helped my buddie do his, got it all done for under 500, that also included buying all the equipment ... So any time i want mine painted or what not, all I have to do is spend like 200 bucks or so on paint. >

Not sure if i like that its kinda brownish looking
So Maaco does a good job? Ok i'll try them.
X ITCHY X: When you went to Maaco is that the price of a color change?? Let me know thanks.
I know a person that had a white corolla painted blue at Maaco, for under $900
but it was the outer panels only, under the trunk and hood doors are white, inside the doors are white and inside around the window pillars are still white. and they did not do a good job of removing rust, it came back and started to lump under the paint near a wheel well. They do offer better jobs for more money. maacos cheaper paint jobs are good if you just want to restore its original color.

Damn I want to just repaint my car to pearl black my car is metallic black right now....How much you think for that? It's not a major change..
However, my suv right now is light blue it looks purple and i want it to be bright blue LoL now that needs a drastic change before i can put rims on it. LoL

Isn't anything that's pearl actually like getting 2 pain jobs? First they prime it, then put down like a silver metallica base and then a semi-transparent color on top of that?
