For the hard top, you can figure about 4 hours prep time and 4 hours paint time as a guide. You can certainly get an estimate from a quality auto body shop. Any shop should be able to match your color with the correct paint code. Whats involved is buzzing down the old painted surface and filling or repairing any dings if you wish. Once this is done, new base coat and clear will be sprayed. Then the shop will wetsand and buff the new paint to match the rest of the finish on your car. All said and done you can figure about 500.00 to 550.00 for a nice job. I am figuring body and paint labor at around 50.00 per hour plus materials.

Best of luck!
