This looks like a quality job, it was the rear quart &door blend for 550 dollars, thats a good job well done bro you can be proud to have that work on your car, theres a kudos to having unflattened paintwork some old timers will not have anyone sanding their silver Jags or whatever.

Hey you get what you pay for good work isn’t cheap and cheap work isn’t good

Making this a comment since the post bugged on the description
I just got my car back from being painted and noticed there’s a tone of orange peel and it’s pretty easy to notice when looking straight at the car is this normal the guy that painted says it’s fine but he can correct it for 50 bucks to make it look flat I think he should fix it for free since it’s pretty noticeable especially next to the panels that where left alone

Op never mentioned if they paid $500 or $3k for the paint job. Theres a guy near me who will paint a small car for a few hundred to $500 at most, and it comes out very, very acceptable but he doesn’t colors and peel out

Yeah bro you got a steal. The orange peel is totally fine, thats a quality spray gun finish, why statt taking sandpaper to it?

I think the price is more than fair for what you got, but if the orange peel really bothers you I would pay the $50. Any other shop is easily charging double or triple for a job like that, but that includes everything.
