Sorry bout that

 

my shop is in south florida but I can tell you a few things to look for, at my shop to change the color on my TL-S I would need at least 60 hours of labor and thats with NO body work. I dont know what the labor rates are around your area but at my shop it is $42 an hour and at that rate we are talking 6 to 7 thousand this includes, taking doors off, taking fenders off, taking hood off, lights off, removing all glass, interior door trim, bummpers off, all crome, and trim removed. I could go on but I am just letting you know how much is involved to paint. Take it around to a few shops, if thier estimates are low, you won't like it, if the shop says they can get it back to you in a week, you won't like that either. I would say at my shop 3 to 4 week repair. Also find a shop that warranties there work at least 3 years 36,000 miles I would think you should be able to find a shop that had a lifetime warranty as long as you own the vehicle. This is just some things I would look for.

 

thank you for the info.
