Fascia repaint

[Kiaser]

What kind of pricing have you guys been getting on front fascia repaints?

I did mine a couple of years ago, I think it was about $350.00 if I recollect correctly.

It costs more if you have stripes and they would need the car to line up everything. I was quoted $1200 by a non-dealer establishment.

Price can greatly vary from shop to shop. One guy quoted $650. He wanted to remove the fascia and "do it the correct way". I ended up paying $250 from a shop that did not remove it. But why waste the $$ you will only have to do it again in a couple of weeks when you hit a speed bump, driveway or parking curb. Unless you can see it from the front wait until you have to have something else painted ( hopefully you won't) and do it then.

It has collected chips over time, it's time for a repaint. Last time it was painted the original paint was not stripped, so you can see some tiny paint cracks. I'm gonna have it stripped and painted fresh.

Stripping the old paint approximately doubles the cost.

I had mine done at Fitzgerald's body shop, now called Mike's Quality Car Care, for $500. That included the dealer cut to have the nose removed, transported (about 500 ft.) to Mike's, painted and reinstalled. I've got a blue/white '97 GTS. They did a very good job and used the right flexible paint. It's a perfect match.

After the new paint job, I immediately had a 3M clear bra installed. No more chips for me! Now if they'd only invent a bug repellant, I'd be set.

I was wondering the same thing. A shop quoted me $400.00 to just remove a bunch of scratches. It does not include repainting. A woman backed into my car and created the scratches.

Just keep in mind that if you ever get rid of the car a dealer might notice it when the evaluate the car with the paint meter. They might think the car was in an accident.

A local shop here in Atl charges $400 and that is them doing ALL the work.
