ok, well keep in mind, i live in barrie, and would rather not drive down there jsut for a quote, could u give me a rough estimate, you would be looking at removing the windshield, and removing a spot of rust 2 inches - 1.5 inches, welding in new metal, prepping and painting that spot, say 8-12 inches of pillar in red. The pillar is about 1.5 inches wide. ---

I’d have to put on plates from my celica and drive it over, and that’s kinda risky :s Can you make an educated guess? It’s not a lot of rust on the hatch. It’s bubbles and whatever is under the spoiler (haven’t looked lol) There’s no like… holes that I can see, except for the stock holes for the spoiler (I would want to cover them up) ---

How much to paint the whole car? Could you post it in the actual thread so that people will know and not have to keep bombarding you with the same question. I’d also need rockers de-rusted/repaired and some spots on the fenders (all cut and weld). ---

Ask and you shall receive… To repaint the whole car in the same colour, you’re looking at about $1600. If you wanted a colour change you’re looking at about $1800. However, keep in mind that if your car is in need of major body work, ie. major cutting and welding, etc…, then the price will increase accordingly. Hope that helps. ---

Well, that really depends on you…see, it costs $200 extra to do the door jams, so if you’re okay with the car being a different shade of red or blue than the door jams, then yes, we could do it for $1600. 😃 ---
