how much does it cost to get a paint job for a 2007 Civic? just a simple stock paint job, nothing fancy.

you can get a nice paint job that would last you for a while for around 1000-1500

Same color or new?

A full repaint color change would be expensive, because there is alot of labor involved.

a good decent paint job will run your around $2k - $3k, but the more you spend the better the results and the longer it's going to last.

What are you looking to do, change your cars color? One thing I will suggest and the most important thing is ABSOLUTELY DO NOT!!!!!! Cheap out on the paint. Your car has a lot of life left in it and can live it's life on the factory paint. If you get a cheapo paint job it will look like sh*t from the start and you will need to get it repainted in a few years making it worse.
