i was wondering if you guys would be able to tell me how much i will be looking at for a new paint job. they will not need to do any body work it will be all sanded and all they have to do is primer and paint it. it will be original colour too. ---

Take it to various body shops and ask these questions…noone here will really know what someone elese is going to charge you …ect… it all depends on where you go, anywhere from 3-5 G usually. maybe cheaper in your situation since you say the body work is done. ---

most body shops wont take it if you do the sanding yourself, but you can try. ---

instead of posting here and asking us since most of us dont know. open the phone book and start calling or stop by bodyshops for estimates. ---
