old man had his HQ sedan done in metallic (not inside edges though) in De beer and fully buffed (pretty rough) for $2,500 around 12 months ago through a local business. Same shop will flick a full front bumper (off car) for a taxi in white for $150 inc materials...

personally i don't think materials are expensive but i don't pay retail either. my panel beater can keep a piece of sand paper going forever! good tradesman work efficiently and don't waste much
