Yep.... anywhere from 3-6 grand depending on where you go, what kind of paint you want to use, the level to which you sand it back ( also depends on how different the new colour is ) and other things like if you are doing the engine bay, inner door trims etc....

To a point you get what you pay for.

$500 paint job isn't going to win you any showcar events.

Some paint materials can cost upwards of $6k trade. And certain paint styles and types can cost more in labour and materials to get an even finish.

Multi-flip paints can cost more not only because the paint costs a bomb but also because mistakes mean more materials are used to correct errors, sometime unavoidable ones.

    • I'm running a Haltech Platinum Pro with the stock map for the RB20DET + tweaks for my build. When I started it this morning, the IAT was at 32F/0C (Outside temp was ~42F) and the AFRs went off the scale for my AEM gauge. I let it run for ~30 seconds then turned it off. I then did a smoke test, by hooking into a vacuum line directly behind the throttle body, and confirmed there was no leaks ( i let the smoke tester run for ~5 minutes / confirmed it was generating smoke before hand ). I then started the car again, after fixing a power steering leak.... and it seemed to be happy for ~30 seconds (was at ~11/12), but then seemingly shot back up to ~18 again. I then let the car run for a few minutes, thinking this was just cold start related, but the AFRs never came back down. I didn't let the car fully warm up, so maybe this makes sense, but I'm not sure what to do? The AFRs, when I last ran it, were normal, but because of personal reasons I haven't been able to break in the car. It was rebuilt last year.
