i made and host that website. steve is a really good guy, i've known him all my life.
disagree that it costs 5k to do a paint job, or that cheap paint jobs f*** out. it depends on the skill of the prep, the materials used and skill of the painter (in other words, who does it). changing color of a car sucks, but keeping it somewhat close to the color it is, maybe just dumping a s*** load of pearl in, can generate a really nice result. it also depends on the current condition of your car, how much panel beating is required. it's the panel beating and prep that takes time. the actual spraying only takes a few hours using a bake oven. I did all the prep on my car myself and got it professionaly sprayed for the cost of the materials. $500 paint job that looks to be $5k
i can get stuff professionally done for cash if people want work done. (not using steve as above - but by all means go see him if you want a smash tidied up for cheap) i don't want to waste my or my painter's time though, so serious enquiries only
Oh that sounds awesome man, how much does Steve paint the whole car for? And how long will it take you guys to paint a car fully? =]
