Paint cost estimate?

Okay, how much would it cost to get flames done in a very similar fashion to those below, except more obvious and in a metallic blue? It would stretch to about 1/6 or so down the door on the sides...

Also, how much would just a metallic black job over the entire car cost? If I can't find the car I want in black, I'm just going to get it repainted soon after I get it; the flames won't come for a while...

If you buy a car and get it painted get the flames done at the same time it will be a lot less then doing ot later

yeah if you are going to do it do it all at once, otherwise expect to pay double!!!

Cost?? It could be anywhere from 2k - 10k depending on what you want to do!
