My 2006 Dodge Charger is a lighter shade of blue, was wondering how much it'd cost to get a decent paint job to make it all black?

Several thousand you could get it done for like $800 but it'd look like poop. So be ready to pay a good amount out of pocket.

A good paint job could run you from 1000-5000

Like what C4 said, 1k-5k. You can get vinyl wrap and get it put on for about 1k or so if you know good people that do it around you.

Vinyl is the way to go, especially since you can go back to the original color

Be ready to pay lots of money though.

Good thing its not a truck... :facepalm: He said Charger.


And back to OP if you want it to look good as factory be ready to drop atleast 2k+

Higher than 2k will be if you want it perfect or even custom.

Goodluck.

Im gonna have to say 5k+ if you want it to be a complete color change to get the engine bay to match and the inside door frame and floor. Could just get plasti dipped and then you can go back to original color anytime and it still looks nice.

My friend had to pay 3k for his g35. And it also depends on where you go and what kid of black. You can Plasti Dip your whole car for $100 or under. I actually think some Plasti Dipped cars look nice.

lol if you plasti dip your car its like you wanted a matte finish but were to cheap to get real matte paint. I hate pasti dipped cars, anyway macc0 is $500 haha, but a good paint job is at least $2500 or more
