My car might be slow, but at least it looks nice!

Most shops by me cost $4000 to $5000 for a pearl, $5000 to $6000 for camilian(sp) and then $7000+ for candy because you have to be a really good painter to be able to do candy... Plus there are like 14 coats for candy and if you don't do it the exact same all the way around the car then you will get different colors.
My car is gunna be 10x faster than yours...haha... I'm gunna buy like 10
of those speedchips! I figure if 1 gets me 20hp then 10 will get me 200hp!

those 350z colors cost a lot. I painted mine the 350z blue color for $2000. Their paint is not cheap but it sounds like your ready to shell out the money so enjoy!

wtf???? yeah i know prices up there are a lot higher for everything, but i wasn't aware it was that bad. it's probably worth your drive to nc to have it done if you have to pay 10K, we could do a complete color change with custom paint from HOK for way less.
