acyrlic...
paint cost allow around $500 for a solid (white black red)
+ an extra $70-100 for a metallic (silver)
for a DECENT coat of paint

then there is your primer or primer surfacer
and your etch primer ..then undercoat
and fillers ....and wet'n'dry 'shutup'

yeah ..I would allow at least $3 large for a re-spray (same colour)
and more.... for a colour change

note - aaron101 only asked for the cost of the paint

unless your going to get it DEAD strait i'd be going silver.
P.S. metalics are pretty hard to spray if it's your first time
