Re: Anyone painted their SVX in denver?

3500 won't get you much in terms of a quality paint job. Paint and supplies alone you're talking about a grand, leaving 50 hours or so at $50 for r&r, prep, painting, clear coat and buff. A truer sense for the checkbook would be a minimum of $5k for a solid, but not show quality job. To get into the $3500 range you'll likely need to do much of the r&r yourself. Just make sure all the shops you go to are on the same page for estimating. When I got the Tivver painted I insisted on more coats then most places typically do as I hope to have a 20 year paint job.
