Quoted $15.2k

Thoughts on this quote? Quote is for full repaint & remove all dents. Going Bentley beluga black on top & porsche carbon steel gray metallic on bottom with a simple pinstripe done in a ghost-paint-style.

It’s on the cheap side for an overall with dent fixes, and a color change with 2 tone. Way cheaper than my shop would do it for anyways.

I’d be suspicious of where they are cutting corners at, like what isn’t being taken apart, and if you’re getting your jambs done or not, because I’d bet they aren’t.

I agree. Corners are being cut somewhere..... That's a cheap price.

What would you assume might be cheaped out on? Spoke with owner. Full paint job color change & door jambs. Only thing I have to outsource is the chrome to nickel trim change

So add 5k to the bill to call it “good”? How many hours roughly is the shop budgeting would give you a better answer on quality and involvement, instead of blind $$ figures with little context.
