im having someone install a rocker panel on the driverside which costs a grand and they said they would paint my car pearl white (the original color) for 1500, is that a good deal? all the other places were asking 3 grand to do it. the car also needs minor body repair.

i kinda want a different color than pearl white like the wrx blue but im not sure of the paint code, does anyone els know?

Rocker panel is the panel right underneath the door.

Sounds like a low end paint job. Will they be stripping the paint down or just painting over? Find out how much masking they'll be doing. You don't want everything white.
