500 bucks is about right, maybe a tad steep... labor rates vary greatly from area to area though.

If the shop is reputable and guarantees their work/ paint for atleast 5 years, thats a good price.
The price will be dependent for the going rates in the area the work is done.

You get what you pay for when it comes to paint. Pay whatever you think is fair, to whomever you think is capable of doing the job properly.

I don't think you can ever really pay "too much" for a good paint job.

The warranty on the work is more important than price....the shop I use gives lifetime guarantee - anything happens they will fix it FOC

When I picked up the car the job was so good I decided it was worth it. Unfortunately I scraped the new front spoiler on the way out of the shop.
