Default Painting a jeep

I sold my 09 sahara and ended up getting a 04 ruby. But its black, Black is a solid color for a jeep but there are to many around. Has anyone paid to have their jeep paint. if so whats the cost?. Thanks for the help.

You should Line-X it. You can get the LIne-X tinted to different colors too.

he can do that.. but it will never be clean.. the dust gets in it and is a PITA to get out. last thing you wanna do is lineX an exterior. IMO

to answer your question

I got a quote for my LJ which is ruffly around 3K give and take.. it may vary between shop to shop depending on the work quality and material used. but it shouldn't be that much different. I would save some labor by taking the lights and fenders and all that stuff off that you can do in your garage with basic tools just to save up for other mods

what color do you have in mind?

I like the electric lime green they had in 04. So something close to that with some black bedlined fenders and Im going to do a custom flat black decal. Thanks for the input
