OMFG, i felt like socking that mofo in the face....
ok, so i walk into Greenwalds (a body shop around here) i dk if its in other states. i ask if they do invdividual jobs, as in not insurance, they say "Ofcourse." Well, one of the estimators looks at me and says "what kind of car is it?" so i tell him. he goes "your prolly looking at around $7000." Well, i figured he saw me, and thought i was just playing around about getting a paint job, or thought he was too good for me. Anyways he says,"u still want an estimate?" I told him "Yea, thats what i walked in here for (he stares at me)" i say "I am a customer RIGHT?" he seems annoyed and says "...yes you are"
I ended up waiting for an hour for him to come out to look at my car, and another hour for him to come up and print the estimate.
He came up with $10028.63, 168 hrs or work at $42/hr and 41 working days. and he kept saying, "OH and this is just a starting point, b the time were done it could and most likely will double...we had a vette here that ended up being 16K and was here for a year" i told him, well thats interesting... Always with a smile on my face, because if i would have shown annoyance he would have "won" 
anyways, he was a jerk, i wish i could go back and say, well start work on my car, heres your 10k deposit "Starting point" lemme know if it goes up umkay?
whew...long one, just had to let it out. Anyways, do u guys think he just inflated the prices, or is a paint job event of the best quality and material around this price, and i thought 1-2k was too much...
