$3,000 to paint the roof body color
 

I toyed with the idea of making a monotone FJ. No longer. Admittedly I went to the best body shop around, but the quote was way more than expected. Apparently the rack and gasket removal and masking is labor intensive = $. So, Corey, if you're thinking of making an all-white FJ, fuggetaboutit and learn to love the Mini-Cooper look. Painting the body to match the roof would be even more painful. Starting to like the two-tone more...

Wow, 3 grand to paint the roof. So if the body was more, 8 grand for paint? At least parts will be plentiful in a few years as insurance adjusters will total these vehicles with a minimum of damage it seems.

whats the roof color with white fjs?

There are no white FJ's.

there will be an all black special edition soon, black body and black roof

That is ridiculous, don't give up on it. That is about 4X too much. I had my whold truck painted dupont stage 3 paint and it only cost 700.00. If you want to save some money.....take all the stuff off that you can, and mask off as much as you can. WHen I got to the paint shop, I removed my rear mirrors, tail lights, wipers, squirters, etc. etc.

I would expect to pay 3- 600 for just the roof. Definitely no more than 1000.00. Keep looking and don't give up. The fruit will be worth the labor.

That can't be right, I got my whole rig, roof and all painted, and new bumpers, trim and end caps for 3K. Maybe its your location but thats way to steep...then again, I am friends with the owner, but still....

That's ridiculous, they were only gonna charge me $800 for my roof when I got keyed...take it somewhere else for sure.

Fink:devil:

I heard rumors of a "Moab Edition" fixed up by TRD.
