If I could I would. But I do not have the time nor the room to do it.

5k for a respray?
I'm very suprised how much money companies are making for just coating a car in paint and doing a bit of preperation...

I'm very suprised you don't have the time, Because on an average wage of say $20 an hour, you'd have to do at least 250-300 hours (thats not including the money lost in tax) just to afford this respray...

OR....

U could buy a Compressor, a DECENT spray gun, paint, thinners, sand paper, wax and grease remover, rent out a garage for a few days, stop work for a few days for leave for instance, and u'd still have AT LEAST $4000 left over in ur hands...

I'm suprised ppl don't have time but would still work those extra say 250-300 hours for the convience..

I'll be respraying my car without a doubt, Its gonna cost Less than $200 for everythin, i have the compressor already!

some people just dont have the knowledge,skills or experience required.like myself Sad
