Getting a pretty paint job is very time consuming but if you do the prep work yourself, it can be pretty cheap.
The first thing is to take off as much as you can from the exterior of the car. Door handles, all trim, weatherstripping around doors and windows, etc.
Then, its getting rid of all the dings. Filler, sand, filler sand until all the dings are perfectly straight.
Then, block sand the entire car to make sure all the body panels are perfectly straight.
The labor to tape and shoot the car once you have done the prep work is really very reasonable, but if you want to get a good paint job, you have to use a catalyzed 2 part paint and some, like Glasurit, can easily cost near $1000 in paint alone.
