color?
I'm looking to by a car right now, and I've come across quite a few that I'd really want but hate the color of.
How much does it usually cost to have a car painted a different
Well it's been a long time since I had a car painted, but I paid around $2000-ish for a pretty good paint job. You can definitely get it done for much cheaper, but you will know the difference within 6 months to a year.
The cost depends on a lot of things too, like what type of car it is, primer/clear coat options, and if you want some kind "fancy" color.
You can lower the cost by preparing the car yourself, but be warned that is a lot of work. Sanding down a car is a long process. Also keep in mind, you get what you pay for. A good paint job can go a long way.
Have a look here: http://www.refinishnetwork.com/blog/how-much-will-it-cost-to-have-your-car-painted.html , it's a good writeup on how much it will cost you.
