In 1998 I had my (then) 21 year old Porsche fixed up and repainted.
This was in a top of the line body shop that specialized in German
cars and did outstanding work - no compromises, e.g., they went
through 4 sets of used front fenders until they found a set they
would use. See the picture in the link below...
Anyway, in 1998 the paint materials (I believe PPG) - primer, color
coat, catalyst, & clear coat - cost $800.
