How much would it cost to paint a car?

Its a 2000 Ford Expedition. Its white, and i was thinking of changing it to maybe blue gold or black. I understand that the shop has to paint the door jambs and such. How much do you think it would cost at some place like Maaco. I haven't purchased the car yet, but i am trying to see if its worth it.How much would it cost to paint a car?
Don't get your car painted at Maaco unless you are getting it the exact same color.


Seriously, they are terrible. Paid $1,000 for a paint job there and it was one of the biggest financial mistakes I ever made.





If you want it done right, it will cost you at least $3,000. Probably more on such a big truck.


If you want some crappy job, it can run you between $400-$1,000.How much would it cost to paint a car?
Changing the color of a vehicle and doing it right is a costly and time consuming venture. In order to make it look complete you have to strip almost the entire vehicle to completely cover the old color. You would probably be much better off looking for a different vehicle that is already the color you want.
I've had cars painted for $200, and cars painted for $35,000.00. Depends on the car and what you want it o look like when it's done.
1500 to 3000..black is almost imposible to do without 1000 dollars in prep work
