Default cost to paint

Has anyone had their entire jeep painted recently? Im just tryin to get a ball park cost on how much it would be to paint everything @ your average run of the mill auto paint shop. Nothing crazy, probably just go with flat black or keep it stock silver.
Any incite or answers are much appreciated
Thnx

Cheaper to get it colored matched.

I was quoted $1000 from a local guy here. That's not a showroom paint job... But it is color matched, with all the body work done.

Almost 100%, depends on where you take it really.

Thats not as bad as i thought. I just got some minor rust bubbles and other dings/scratches that i wanted to get rid of. So color match would be the cheapest route?

Why not get some estimates from local places?
While asking here might give you a ball park idea, real life usually has a different plan.

I got a bit crazy with my paint job and payed for it. If ur looking for decent Job at a good price keep the stock color and buy ur own paint, helps keep the cost down

Maaco is usually the cheapest around. I called them and they quoted me $450 for the stage 1 job. Body work was a little extra.
