Its late, so I cant call and ask them directly. If you say, "Hey, I want my jeep to have Line X instead of paint", and they say, "OK, it will be $XXX.XX", do they sand down the rust spots and remove the old paint?

I'm pretty sure they just scuff and shoot, they don't do body work.

Why would it cause overheating?

like already said, they just scuff the paint and spray it on. my 6ft bed was $400 so i can only imagine what a whole body would cost. i know its $700 to do Jeep tubs. and i wouldnt even want my exterior painted with it. not only does my bed get HOT in the summer, it is impossible to clean.
