Question About Vehicle Repaint/Body Kit

I was wondering if when you get a body kit for your vehicle, do they repaint the entire vehicle too??? It's a dumb question I know, but I only ask because this place I was originally going to get my body kit put on said it would take 3 days and cost $1,000 for paint/labor. I recently thought about getting my car repainted and the Sprayglo guys told me they would repaint my body kit & car + mount the body kit, all for $1,500 and it would take 3 days. Getting 20% military discount So for an extra $500 I can get my entire car repainted??? or is $1,000 to paint/mount a body kit too much money??? Thanks

if you can get your car done for 1500....it is either very cheap paint, or the guy sucks..

Cause i full repating is 3000+ for a decent job.

Isn't you car almost new? no point in getting it repainted really.

They just do the bodykit, and depending on how many peice/quaility of pain.labour 1000 is pretty fair...

They seem pretty legit to me man. Ok so $1,000 is fair....good just checking. So I should just stick with my Blue Camry instead of going with a cheap paint job?

$1000 seems pretty legit to me. Im getting a lip kit put in sometime this year and im reserving about 1k for installation and painting. Is there some kind of warranty of there work and if the paint they use will match your paint colour?

just paint your lip kit and get it install, why do you need the whole car repainted?

my lipkit painted didnt match with my car, 7yrs old paint vs new = suck, but i gotta live with it for now.

make sure you don;t use the car color code since the paint will be new, ask them to computer color match it or something with mixing paint so it can match.

u guys think i'll be good then because my car is an '09 with only 12k miles on it not to mention I had it in storage for a year. Just have them use the factory blue with the kit and it should match just fine.

Not sure about the warranty but I was assured they could match the factory paint.

Your car is brand new!!!! Don't even mess with the paint...the kit will paint and match just fine if you get it done by a good paintshop
