most shops charge 1200-1500 for a good paint job.

This

and custom paint jobs usually go for 3k+ or so around here

I have had 2 yellow cars..........IMO it was just a stage I went through.

I will never own another one as I honestly don't know what I was thinking. Just not my bag anymore and a phase I went through.

I like the red one.

ya not sure how good it would be in the snow. lol. i guess some winter tires should help, and not driving stupidly.

i had a 96 TA and my winter car broke down and had to drive mine during the winter here in NE Ohio. wasnt fun but it can be done. handles pretty well, once you get going. getting going is the tough part. slightest touch of the gas and all it wants to do is spin. hell in light rain if you werent careful you could spin it out. fun car though. if i wasnt driving so far to work at the time, and gas didnt go so far up i would of kept mine. couldnt afford to keep it at the time.

to answer the question, i could drive that car in yellow as no matter what color the car is people are going to look at it. but like a normal car, like my girlfriends bright yellow sunfire, i couldnt stand driving that. ferrari, corvette, TA, something i wanted to be seen in sure, but a simple basic run of the mill car, no. i would get tired of it quickly.

I have grown up around a high end body shop and wow are your prices off. To remove the panels, remove the engine (remember engine bays are painted too), scuff, repair, jam, paint, clear, color sand and buff expect to pay around 5g's for a decent paint job, obviously more work cost more money. Black cars will show EVERYTHING under the paint. If your going to get a cheap paint job, why not just buy an OEM black car.

well im not even talking about an actual paint shop. im talking about guys who've been in the business and know every trick in the book who will unroll the plastic, make their own paint booth in your garage and start painting. theres alot of guys like that around here that do fantastic work. just a matter of finding them and helping them out to make a good price deal
