question for those with nice paint jobs

Post by Cherry Blossom »

i am currently looking for a reputable and quality body shop in the socal area to do complete respray of the whole body including minor body work(dings), engine bay, and full interior respray.
my question is will the bodyshop have access to brand new window and interior moldings? because mine pretty much fall apart to the touch.

also, if someone could recommend a shop in socal and how much the usually charge for something that im looking for i would greatly appreciate it.

No body shop will have the interior parts for a roadster. You will have to gather the bits from the usual places yourself-vendors-Ebay. As to the cost a really nice paint job--That can cost upwards to $4,000-$6,000 depending on the amount of body work. The preparation can make or break a paint job. You get what you pay for holds true here. I have no clue about body shops in southern California. Hopefully someone else will have a recommendation for you.
