All the work is done out of a major dealership bodyshop, so quality is top notch…work is done after hours…I can’t seem to remember the name of the paint, but it is of the highest quality. I’ll pm you with the details when I get them.

I also need my whole car painted but I don’t have much money. I am fixing the rust and doing all the body work with a few friends. How much will it cost for a full paint job in the same colour (black) if the car is prepped?

Ditto for me with different colour. Not concerned about underhood and inside trunk and trunk lid.

Yes, all major body work is done with metal - no bondo! lol.

k, how much do you charge for pillar repair, i would want to inspect it before painted though, so i would need about a 1 foot section of pillar painted(about 2 inches wide), and the rust cut out(the rust is about 2 inches long, by 1 inch wide), and new metal welded in, and do u replace windshields?

In my case, I would need the factory spoiler removed and all the rust there (the hatch) repaired and painted in the same colour. If the price is good, then I also want some minor touch-ups in several spots.

Okay guys,

in both cases you’d have to come by the shop…Your situations are a little harder to quote without actually seeing the car.

Keep in mind the shop is located just north of Steeles on Yonge.

If you want my phone number, IM me.
