I've had my 2000 Eclipse GT for almost 4 months now. Its black and as we all know that black starts to fade really quick. Recently it's starting to fade quicker and I need to find a place to get it painted. I don't want to spend over $700....any suggestions??

 

Well if you dont want to spend over 700, i suggest you get yourself a paint gun, some decent paint, and start practicing!

 

How much should i expect to pay for a decent paint job?

 

a little over a grand for cheap stuff from ppg.

 

i think John (TE) spent 8k on his paint job and it still didnt come out good....what i suggest...is what sebba suggested...but with the $$$ you would spend on materials you may as well get it professionally done

 

Then,why do i see all these paint jobs done in home garages,that come out clean?Experience,tools,etc?So,with all those,it can be down,without a down draft booth?I'm worried about contamination in the house of kolors paint.

 

john spent 8k his paintjob?? what all did he have done?

 

ummm wow thats alittle off, haha. I spent $2k and that is usually the average price for a decent paint job.

 

hahaha thats what i figured! i was like what the hell?

 

wow 8k for a paint job? that's a lot...
