Simon Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I'm going to assume you had all the tools and didn't have to buy anything other that paint. I painted my MR2 for $400. But didn't have to buy anything except paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zep Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 How do you get enough primer/paint/clear for $400? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark105 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 i got 4L of primer and 4L of color matched enamel for $230, the lacquer i got to do the 260C was about same price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 How do you get enough primer/paint/clear for $400? Paint a small car and know the person who sells it lol. Also was 2k single stage so no clears. You can get even cheaper if you want to sacrifice quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cute wee gem Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Yep painted my last Gemini in that shit, it's sweet as. An MX5 would be cheap as chips to paint if it's reasonably straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
