Around here for a really good paint job, including door jams and everything would be about 1500 bucks. Don't go cheap on a paint job!

In the UK, for a FULL color change, you're looking at around $3000

Nah, you weren't off. Maybe it's a Florida thing. I got my car fully painted and it only cost me $700. I got a discount because my friend works there, but it was only like $300 off. Mine may have been cheaper though because I went from Milano red to San Marino red. I loooooove the darker red, though. It's sweet.
