You get what you pay for with paint. Definitely do it right the first time and you will appreciate it.

I got quoted $400 from a very good friend of my dad (they grew up together). Now all I have to do is buy my hood and bumper!

That sounds extremely high around here Individual painters and certains shops will tear your whole car down prime paint and color sand for 3,000.
