Paint can be VERY expensive. Back home in RI I have helped a friend a couple time paint his cars. Depending on color and company it ranges from 150 a gallon to over a grand a gallon. We did a real nice blue on his Talon from DuPont it was 750 bucks just for a gallon of color then you have to add in primer, sealer, sanding cuff, clear coat and so on. Good and cheap should never be used in the same sentence when it comes to body work or really anything automotive performance related. It is a science and art all built into one. Best best is to really research it out and see what kind of work they have done in the past. I am new to the area so I can not be much help with recommending a shop.
