LS6TT: Good pricing on paints. I would love to see pics of the finished product.
Carnios: The look between the Krylon and actually doing the sanding and automotive paint is a big difference. Some people like the Krylon look while others dont. I am not positive on an estimate, but its not cheap because the sanding is very involved. Its not like a panel of a truck or something where you take a rotary sander to it. You can do that on some pieces, but mainly its all hand sanding. Thats just a lot of hours not to mention the whole removal of the dash isnt exactly a cake walk. The man hours alone on the thing is killer thats why I suggested doing most the prep work yourself and then taking it in. For them to spray it is a couple hours labor and the price of paint. I wouldnt even know where to start with a quote because we have only done them on our show cars and we arent really a paint shop so we dont market it. Just call around and see... I wouldnt be surprised if some of the more popular paint shops in your area had already done a few and could give a quote on the phone. Best of luck!
P.S. Two-tone paint pricing doesnt differ a ton unless they are rare colors. You'll probably pay 50-100 more for the second color since they have to spend a bit more time finding and mixing another paint.
