I call BS on your calling BS!
Sure if you change the equation by doing so much work yourself it's going to cost less.
Also, prices vary widely not only by shop, but by region.
Finally, the owner admits to wanting very definite quality in the final product. Paying too little or a 'bargain' price is not the best way of gauranteeing this.
If I had my DD repainted, I'd spend no more than $5k. But I'd
RUN, not walk, away from any shop quoting me $5k to paint my Boxster unless they were a Blood relation.
Cheers!
