Well my 92 is basically a shell now and is ready for paint. I have decided to change the color from white to black. Car has no rust and no body damage other than little parking lot dings.
I am going to use a the same shop that does all the body work for Lexus of Melbourne. Materials are all PPG and the shop has been in business since 1984 and offers a lifetime warranty on peeling, sun fade, etc. I know you get what you pay for, so I am just trying to see if this sounds about right.
Engine bay sprayed
Door jams and entire inner door sprayed.
Floor pans and trunk well sprayed. Floor pans will be primered and base only.
Drilling and mounting side spoiler pieces.
Swapping hatch from my 89 over to the 92 (wont have holes to weld and drill when swapping spoilers)
Bear in mind that the car is stripped already and I am putting all the pieces back on except for molding and such so this cuts a lot of hours out of the job for the shop. They will do the engine bay and give the car back to me and finish the car after the drivetrain is installed.
Cost is $4,000
Good, bad, or get some more quotes. I have gotten a couple of quotes but the shops have looked shaddy and one didn't even have a paint booth on site :aigo:
