My paint prep was worth it!

Since you did all of the prep work, what did the final spray cost you? Jambed, engine bay, trunk, etc....?

I painted engine bay black before dumping in the motor. My other car is white engine bay and you drive it once and it looks dirty again. Interior of car and trunk well I painted gloss gray.

$1500 with BC/CC
He sprayed the grill, headlight bezels, front fender blackout, scoop, and top/bottom of hood gloss black. Fenders painted off the car, inside truck lid, trunk/door/window jambs painted white.

I probably have another $500 in prep materials; primer, seam sealer, sand paper, etc.
