Is this a good price????

I want to know what you guys think? Some of you have seen my car, it's a white 93 hatch and I have the Andy's autosport combat kit in fibreglass with the wings west 3 pc lip spoiler and top wing. I went to get a price to paint my whole car. $3200
These are the details:
Cut front bumber to house intercooler
Shave mouldings and door handles includes the door pop actuators.
Filling in the GSXR 600 gas cap.
Smoothing out the kit and block sanding the whole car.
Painting it white diamond pearl.
Keep in mind this will be a show car finish!!

Anyone know if this is a fair price? I'm really picky when it comes to body and paint and I've seen this guys work and it's really nice!

Anyone else had their cars painted by someone reputable? I'm not looking for just a paint job, I'm looking for a quality job.

That is a good price.. But keep in mind that when you shave your door handles, a lot of tracks will not let you race for safety purposes.. But if it's a show car, then good stuff!

As far as I know if it is a street car shaved handles are not allowed at the track. If it is a track only car with all the safety gear then shaved handles are okay.

is that because of safety reasons?..like if they crashed it would be hard to get the person out of the car?

Oh yeah!! I remember those guys, they had that yellow Civic at Darknights. That conv. used to be a cx hatch before the conversion. They look pretty tight.
