How much would an OE paint job cost?

[hammerfang]

If I end up keeping my 95 325is for another 1-2 years I will most likely get it repainted. It has 165k miles on it and seeing how it has spent most of its like in the north east, the black paint needs to be redone. There are a few rust spots and dents/scratches accompanied by countless rock chips. So I am wondering what it would cost to get the entire car repainted and its blemishes removed. I would like to get as close to an OE paint job as possible, although it does not need to last me for 10 years.

What do you guys think this might cost me assuming I would have it done at a reputable shop and not some place like MAACO.

Thanks,

Dan

I had an OE paint job done on my m3. It basically cost me a very good amount, i had one very small rust spot which had not spread it was cosmetic. I had chips etc etc.The color is Titanium silver, i had both bumpers painted, all new moldings. I would say you may expect a bill of around 3-6G's depending on the quality and the amount of repair needed.

I would also talk to philsans on this forum, he is located in Mass. From what i have heard from the other members of this forum, he is THE guy to go to.


Good luck.

I've heard of some of the best complete chassis paint jobs go for about $10,000.
