Paint cost

what color? B5? some colors bleed more than others and might require more or less depending.
Me, I would get a good paint don't get cheap here, as it will need to hold up to chemicals and heat. PPG concept (tell them you're going single stage) or something along those lines, paint, hardener, reducer. maybe even some primer and hardener 200ish?

Clean the crap out of everything before you even start prep sanding. Make sure the master cyl is not leaking anything and clean extra in that area, Brake fluid is nasty stuff and that area tends to get/be saturated in old fluid from the years. It will lift and eat the paint right off.
