prices vary from shop to shop. i've heard of shops charging a set price per panel, per sq. foot. also factor in that maaco will paint a whole car for 600 bucks, some shops will paint a whole car for 5 grand. i know my personal shop would charge around 200 for work like that but thats for a quality job and a family discount. anyone else would pay double.

It depends on what/who you shop with. But shop around. I always hear people say that the second place they go to has prices that are way cheaper.

depends on shop and how glossy you want to make it. Cost more for extra clear.

my last project (last thing on my to-do list) to add more gloss/shine to my car (not talking about polish) want that bad boy looking polished with out polishing it
