How much would it cost to make your 240sx to look like this?

any decent quality body kit is going to cost a grand or more. widebody may be an extra $500 or so. stickers are cheap, paint depends on how you do it, you can do a lot of work yourself and just do a rustoleum job for under $100, or you can spent $500-$1k on a cheap single stage job. those bride seats are 1200 each or so depending on what type they are. Wheels and tires are probably $3000 plus he probably has coilovers and other suspension arms to lower it that much.
Body Kit- $1000
Widebody - $500
Stickers- who the fuck cares
Paint- $100-1000
Seats- $800-2400
Wheels/tires- $1000-3000
Coilovers- $800-2000
Suspension- $500-1000
So in total $4700- $10900 roundabout

i clearly stated that was a cheap single stage job. and have you seen a good rustoleum paint job? they can be done for under $100. I wasnt counting having the body work done by someone else.

nobody said anything about a rattle can job. You can take rustoleum and roll it on and it will come out looking amazing if you do the work correctly. You are on a 240 forum, surely you have seen the process before?
Another way to get a decent paint job for cheap, do all the body work yourself, bring it to maaco and talk to the expert painter there, give him a little extra on the side and you can get a decent single stage for $300-400. go home and wetsand/buff/polish and you have a very good paint job on the cheap.

What did I read wrong exactly? I have seen them done before "correctly" and they still do not compare to a quality paint job at a body shop.
I don't see how you can argue this. Sure, it looks alright for $100, but not anywhere near a real paint job.

Wow. Yeah....<$100 for a "good" paint job.
We don't see professional cars with roll-on paint. We don't see manufactured cars with roll-on paint. If it looked SO amazing, it'd be done on more than cheapass 240's like ours. We don't see any Vettes, Skylines, or Porsche's with them do we? Exactly. Learn what quality is. Chip Foose isn't rolling on rustoleum. Carol Shelby doesn't use it on his toys. It's a cheap fix for cheap people.
And save the "oooo I'm gonna act like a douche" attitude. We don't care. Really, nobody cares. Save your derps. Keep it up and see how long before the banhammer comes.

LOL, I can see it now. " This is Chip Foose and I love my Mother's Roll on Paint products. I use nothing but the best.". Would like to see how his business would drop off if he painted cars like that.
