A full repaint will likely be $5-7k, depending on how much bodywork (ding repair) they have to do, but they shouldn't be quoting you several months...screw that! Also, if you want a show quality job, Brian at B&D Auto in Pleasanton is the man -- for almost $10k. |

How much would it be to match the stock paint (if thats possible) on say a 89 FC for a front bumper , side skirts, and rear bumper? it should be a lot cheaper than a whole body job right?

Unless your car has already been repainted, it's likely that your 15 year old paint is pretty worn. Matching wouldn't really be possible. |
Will do.

Just wanted you to know that your car is my new desktop.......I love it! |
My paint job was $3800. That included all the body work (bunch of dings), mounting the body kit, hood, and spoiler. Its painted in Chrysler Electric Blue Pearl. (I know I need wheels really bad)

There are a lot of assholes on this site, and it really pisses me off. People shouldn't act that immature. Seriously now, there are a lot of rude people on here. If you don't like it, then keep it to yourself or don't be so rude about it. I have a hell of a lot of work into my car, so yea, it does hurt when people put it down.

first you say...

Originally posted by bladz311 I have a hell of a lot of work into my car, so yea, it does hurt when people put it down. I know you were expecting "That's awesome!!" and "That's the most beauiful body kit I've ever seen".. Get used to it, especially since you posted a huge pic of it. When you do that you're saying "Hey look at my car, I'm proud of it and want to show it off" don't be suprised when someone or even masses of people don't like it. You're now "fair game"... Also "a hell of alot of work" does not automatically = Looks beautiful.. You can put "a hell of alot of work" into any car and still wind up having it be tacky.. IMO I'm finding cars with body kits more and more tacky as the years go on. I think it's because I'm becoming more of an rx7 enthusiast than a "That rx7 with the body kit looks cool" kind of a person. Or maybe it's just old age setting in. BTW, 99% of the forum(Series7 = the other 1%) hates veilside... |
also, bladz311, I believe you got that work done within the last few months....you should know better about that kit. Not to say you can't like it, but the replies you got shouldn't be a shock and you should know what people are gonna think about it. You clearly aren't one who truly follows by the idea of "it is my car and that is all that matters", so with that I say you should have chosen another path if it upsets you.

I paid $1,900 for my many things to be done:
Ferrari red paint job (not the engine bay) Install 5 pc body kit Install sleek headlight kit Install mirrors Install hood & hood pins Shave rear wiper blade and emblems Remove about 5 door dings and it turned out great. http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/542356 |
That steel metallic is crazy, that is a bad ass color!
