2 things I need a estimate on;
Paint job
reupholster

I'm buying a a e36 bmw sedan in a month if not 2 months. I need to know a good place to get a paint job at is a good price. Basic gloss black pretty much.

Also, a reupholster place for maybe leather or some other time of trim for the seat to make it unique for a bmw to have, For a decent price of course

I'm 17 I so I'm not made of money, also thinking could I do all this my self?

well thats some pretty costly stuff, but there are alot of private painters on TR that i've heard do superb jobs. and for the upholstery i would try and find one on TR as well. Also anthony's upholstery at the corner of florida and busch <--- ill never go to another place... g/l

i wonder if he'll take you seriously ^


costly would be like.. 500-600 for a mediocre, alright paint job and close to 1k for a good quality paint job.. the high prices i heard are to due to rising oil costs. which would make sense because the paint is oil-based. and the upholstery would be i imagine around 150-300 it all depends on what you want done there.. but like i said there are probably members on TR who will do a real quality job for cheaper...

LOL do you know what a SEARCH button is, or a STICKY? These ?'s have been answered.

I think you should Do it yourself, and please post pics!

I will stop using SARCASM when you start using the search button.

I think you are a prefect candidate for a job as an Insurance claims adjuster.

And thank you all once again for taking me Seriously, I mean it ;)
