I've had all my work by guys who work in shops, but who do work on the side for extra money. I had my RCSB truck painted twice for $1,500 and both were color changes with a fair amount of body work. Be careful and do your homework on your painter/body guy. The first paint job I had was show quality, but the second was less than desirable and I feel like I need to have it done again. I would recommend looking at rides he's already done, or at least getting pictures of past work.
