    **** that, i'd only pay 4500 for paint on a damn Ferrari or something exotic needing extreme detailed paint work lol.

    well he would do your Ferrari for that as well. keep in mind that is ALL the work, you just bring him the car, tell him the color, and he handles the rest.(all body work is included). this is some of his work


    oh and he also free hands all of his stuff. not to mention he also can do a whole car inside and out.

    No Ferrari owner will let you spend $4500 to paint a chin spoiler on his car. If you can't afford the maintenance (paint included), you can't afford the car.

    I've heard of (but not seen) a $100,000 paint job on an older Ferrari locally.

    Completely disassemble a car for the average shop rate of lets say $75p/hr, including removing all glass and trim, prep and paint it, then reassemble it at said rate and tell me what the total is...
