How much to paint just sideskirts
 
I tried searching for this without much luck.

How much should I expect to pay for a body shop to paint just side skirts White water Pearl?

How about if I want to remove the badges from the trunk? I know that they would have to fill the holes + paint.

Thanks!

Call your local body shops and ask for estimates.

Any ideas? What have you guys paid for this type of work?

Million bucks for everything, seriously call a body shop don't be scared. I bet they will actually be nice.
I paid 75 for skirt paint, but I know a guy so your price may vary.

MY 2 RX-8 R3 skirts were painted for about $200 a piece in Velocity Red with gloss black stripe. SOOO many variables like where you live, minimum wage, professional shop or privately owned, if they don't want to do it so they over bid... I got 3 estimates before I settled on it. Take 1 of your skirts to a shop and ask them how much. It's their job to tell you how much to try and get you to let them do the work.

Based on what I have paid for paint in the past, I would guess you'd have to shell out $300-400 on average.
