| Bodyshop for Paint job
Wondering how much it would cost me to fully paint a Silver 2010 accord into a white?
Anyone know roughly how much I would be looking at and possible a bodyshop recommendation?
Much appreciated guys.

You're better off selling your silver one and buying a white one instead. A decent job will run you 4-5k+ Posted via RS Mobile |

Most bodyshops would probably charge $4000-$5000 to have it done right, if you want it done cheaply ie) masking off mirrors, mouldings and door handles instead of removing your probably looking $2500-$3500 depending on where you go.

color changing is a pain. Have to do door jambs, trunk, inners etc. Better off buying a white one. Unless you are planning to do it yourself, in my case i did.

You have an accord.... there's a shit load of those.
If you actually have something worth painting.. average good job will be 4-5k.
Although there is plenty of people that will do as good of a job for much less. Private painters.

pay a private painter for the materials and labour and you'll get it done for half the price.
unless you like throwing away money.
if you do some research there's lots of quality painters that charge resonable prices.
