If you aren't going to be anal about imperfections in the paint/clear coat, then you can expect to spend a little less. Also, remember that most body pieces aren't perfect when they are new and require some sort of additional prep in at least one area prior to primer.
I think your confused as to what I was asking. I'm asking if anyone has any hookups on paint. Its 80% labor so if you know someone you can get quite a large discount. When I had my old fully modded e46, I would take it into the "ghetto" for lack of a better term to get paint done and the work was superb and super cheap. So thanks for your negative/non-helpful comments but it can be done which is why I made this post in the first place.
