If you want a full conversion it will cost you quite a bit, since they have to do engine, door jams, and other little areas. The way they paint the engine bay is simple, they take out all engine parts then paint.

700 to paint under the hood, everything and the subframe to. I've done business with them before, they are a local neighborhood shop, and have been doing it for like 30yrs. They are really good and inexpensive.
