Had mine done recently in silver/black panda scheme at SA Chassis service. Rust repairs cost me $1k as I had both rear wheel archs, bottom of doors (inner), inner door alleys, rear window, under bumper, and a spot in the boot to cut + weld.
Paint job then cost me $1500 but that was only prepped back a few layers (after rust had been removed) and it was only visible areas so not under hood, door/boot jams. Bare metal would cost a lot more. I removed most exterior stuff but left enough to drive it down there.
Also cost me $500 for the bodykit (ducktail, skirts, lip) fitting which was so there wasnt any seams.
Bottom line is the guy does nice work but make sure you dont have a time schedule (and dont say your not in a rush. I did...). Had to chase him for quite a while and when I needed the car back I had to cut it short so next week its going back to have the lip attached (didnt get done) and get the paint job polished off while Im out of town.
First few places I checked out wanted big cash, $5k+ just for the job paintjob and extra for the rust 
After all its just supposed to be to get rid of the cancer and make it look nice, its not a showroom job.
