None?

You pay for what you get. Go cheap, get a cheap paint job.

Pay quality, get quality.

Paint isn’t cheap, and labor is expensive. So how much of either do you think you can get for a few hundred dollars?

You could go Maaco or Schrieb, but expect the paint to peel off within a year. My exwife did the same thing you’re looking to do, and after a year, the car was worse than it was when she started.

Save up, take the car to the dealer (if they have a painting department), and have them professionally do it. Cost you up to a few thousand dollars, but it will have a dealer warranty, a factory color, and be done right.

    earl scheib, pay the extra for the gurantee, if you don’t like it when you pick it up they have to do it over.

    did this a few times, very satisfied

    good luck
