This May Sound Crazy - Toyota Yaris Forums

A good paint job would be at least $600 starting price (exterior + all door jams), but you can bargain too. I got the dings and scratches from my 2nd car with total repaint included for only $350, and that was because I ran back and forth between 2 competing places a few times. It was kinda tiring, but the price dropped from $625, so it was worth it.

BTW if you're looking to get the engine bay repainted too, then like Luna says, you're looking at shelling out 2K, maybe more.

As long as there's very little or no damage to the paint and body, I would personally keep things the way they are. Besides, even though I also wanted a black Yaris originally (didn't pick that one because dealer wanted more $$ for less features), the current color looks very nice too IMO.
