    Anywhere from $6000 upwards I imagine. If you want a decent respray, well I would be looking closer to the $10,000 mark.
    Yours Kindly,

    this has honetly been covered ten million times. Use the search. It will all vary depending on where you go and the type of paint you use. remember this though. You get what you pay for

    10k? nah 5 pressure packs from bunnings 50 bucks lol
    Wow dude come paint my car with those 5 pressure packs.... You seem to know what your doing!

    You Can save heaps of money if you are gain enough to tackle it on yourself, although some people don't take this option as they don't think they really have the skill or nack, but hey its going to be painted either way so why not give it a shot yourself first, and if you stuff it up, then just make sure you have enough money to take it to the painters
    If it's not a Symptom its not relevant, and if its not relevant I don't care!

    it all depends on whos doing it, type of tinters, pearls, flakes etc, crash shop i worked in was around 5k up with basic metallics, are u looking at full respray inside and out? The most of your money is spent not on paint but time (labour) preping the car, you can save on money by preping your self but a lot of painter dont like spraying over strangers prep work.
