    Default Paint work pricing

    Need opinions on paint work pricing. Took my car to my favorite body shop today to get an estimate on getting my SS hood repaired/painted and installed and get my SS spoiler installed. Hood has a slightly damaged corner and a small crack near scoop. Spoiler is a factory SS spoiler still in the SLP box that it was shipped in. My car is teal with some additional pearl and black SS style stripes. Shop wants $300 to paint spoiler/stripes, $100 to repair hood, $500 to paint top and bottom of hood, stripes and install, and $150 per fender to blend into the hood. Thats $1200 and includes a complete buff of the whole car. Does this sound about right? I had a buddy that managed a body shop before and would do my car as side work, after hours or at cost. I got the high rise spoiler (aka Easter basket handle style) painted for $100 back in 1998. Had the whole car painted and cowl hood installed for $1800 back in 2000. His shop has since gone out of business (owner liked the nose candy more than his paying employees). Need your guys thoughts.
