Since I changed the color, they had to redo my door jams and trunk lid, so it cost about 5k but I got mine for 2.5k since its my friend who did the work..also dupont certified =>
Kitty your car looks really good, those rims are unbelievable. I'd like to get those for my SVT actually, I like the deep dish look. I would have had the mirror housings painted to match your car instead of leaving them black but other than that, I think it looks really sharp.
About the paint, my SVT is in the shop getting the final touches on it's new paint job. PPG Sunset Orange lightly sprinkled with prismatine flakes. The original quote was for $2500 but I had some body work and custom interior work that bumped that price to around $3500. I wanted to go with a kandy color but from what I was told it's practically impossible to match if your car gets into an accident or gets a blemish.
