Well if you don't shop around before hand...trust me you will be paying that much. Some shops will charge you more. But a good shop with fair prices will charge what 2kz71 suggested. Just remember you get what you pay for too, pay 1500-2000 your gonna be .

Yeah I definently dont want to cheap out on paint so the GM dealer gave me a quote the other day around $3500(canadian) $3675 (american) and thats if I had a capper to match .....which I dont, so that price is very very close to what 2kZ71 estimated, how would sunset orange metallic look on a 2000 RC Sport box?Good? Bad? Alright? Sorry to jack the thread, bad habit of doing that lately

if its jammed out and with the right rims and other little things it should look good its just too wild for me. Iv got mine narrowed down to gloss black (factory onyx) or diamonized black which has some pearl in it.

Pearl will be easier to keep clean and will have a deeper color. I'd say go for the pearl!

I say Victory Red! J/K that color sucks. I would say that you should do the Diamonized Black becuase it would be a color that you dont see everyday on a truck like yours.

Sunset Orange Metalic...... wonder what my Quadrasteer hips would look like in that. Probably have to 2 tone it like the Fesler truck cause it's so damn big, but a RCSB would be solid SOM for me!
