Just the scoop painted, and you install? or we do the whole 9 yards?

What color is the truck?

Most basecoats are around $40 a pt for run of the mill paint, $80 a pt for Spiez (very high quality paint, better coverage, better blending, etc) $20 for reducer. Thats a solid color, it goes up and up, fast, when metallics and pearls are used. A tri-coat pearl color can be something like $170 a pt, EACH (metallic base, then pearl mid coat), so $340 a pt for base! Clear is $20-80+ a qt mixed (doesn’t come in pints, we get gals and just charge for quantity consumed) Depending on quality for clear.

For a scoop you are looking at about $80 in materials, as long as its already painted or primed out of the box. If its raw plastic, it needs an adhesion promoter and a bunch more prep time. Just painted, 1.5hrs body time for labor… thats prep, paint, cut and buffed. $82.50+ tax for labor.

Get me the paint code and I will get a cost on the base, I might be able to get them to do a 1/2 pt.
