How much would it cost to...?

how much would it cost to paint a 4 door subaru... black with silver spiderweb pattern, change 2.2 liter head gaskets, right front axel, struts, timing belt, water pump, and change interior fabric color.How much would it cost to...?depends on what color your vehicle is now... it it's a different color the paint will cost you upwards of $5,000 alone without the spiderweb... head gaskets you may as well do yourself because there is only one and it won't take but 2 hours or so and costs only $8.00 or so... timing belt will take 5 minutes and cost you $20.00... interior upholstery will spike the price, especially if you want leather... leather can cost you around $250.00 per captain chair... a bench seat would be more along the lines of $500... axles struts and water pumps all depend on how hard they are to get out... the more time you pay someone to try and get these items out the more money you are putting in their pocket... what you are talking about doing isn't cheap in the least... I would suggest sticking with whatever color the car already is, then do the spiderweb pattern on top of that... that'll take $3,000 off this project real fast...How much would it cost to...?roughly 8500 to 12000 pending on paintHow much would it cost to...?Earl Scheib will do the car the black for about $200. The spiderweb design you will need to price out but I would guess around a grand. The head gasket should be, for parts and labor, about $400 or so. The axle, about $300. Struts, will run approximately $200 plus.The water pump will run between $40 and $100, depending on what quality and warranty you want. Labor should be about 3 or 4 hours. So, about $300. You can buy a spray paint to change the interior color. It runs about $10 a can I believe. You'll probably want 3 or 4 cans.
