i know this is almost a stupid question to ask, but im genuinely curious what people have paid to get GOOD complete paint jobs done i might be getting my subaru repainted (probably not, but if the price isn’t insane i’ll consider it)… would need full paint prep done + a bit of metal work + paint ---

Flat Black is a real hard color to come out perfect. The color tends to show the imperections of any bad body work. So basically the surface of the body has to be in straight and smooth shape for flat black to look good. Over paints like white and silver, you can getaway with minor imperections, but colors like black and especially chalky flat colors it is much harder to do so. ---
