I'm looking at a 944 turbo that will need the whole front of the car resprayed in silver rose metallic paint because of how difficult it would be to respray just a fender in the right color. I got a quote from Stuttgart Southwest's body shop. To put on a used fender, resurface some scrapes on the front bumper and respray the whole front and blend through the doors back to the current paint, will cost $2,500 dollars... a safe bet. But here is the thing. The spoiler under the bumper has damage on it from the mounting bolts inside of the piece rusting. Its pretty noticable, and I would EVENTUALLY want to fix it.... So I'm wondering what a FULL body respray costs in metallic paint... The job would include all of the aforementioned work for $2,500, plus fixing the minor damage with the rear spoiler, and completely respraying the car.
It WILL be cheaper to do it this way in the end, cause if I ever wanted to fix that problem with the rear spoiler so it isnt noticable, I would be looking at another respray of the whole rear end so that it wouldn't be noticable... ugh
I will be asking tomorrow at Stuttgart what they think that would cost, but I also want to know what you guys think.
