How Much Does It Cost To Paint A Jeep Wrangler

Check Out The Links Above For Pricing

If you click on some of the links above, you’ll be able to get a basic DIY cost based on Amazon prices. There are plenty of decent paints like matte black options that will do the job just fine.

We figure the paint job will require you to purchase about 6 quarts of paint(1 1/2 gallons), but you should buy more like 3 gallons just to be safe because it really sucks when you run out of paint in the middle of a paint job.

So, if you were to purchase 6 quarts of paint at about $30/quart, you would be spending about $180 on paint costs.

And remember, if you do decide to purchase by the gallon instead of a quart, you’ll be guaranteed to have enough paint for the job (most likely for a cheaper price), and then you can sell the leftover paint to another Jeep or Mustang owner who is looking to get repainted as well.

Plenty of options to choose from!

As you can see there are a mountain of options when it comes to painting your new Jeep.

How To Save Money When Painting A Jeep Wrangler?

Jeep Wrangler/Jeep Cherokee has to be one of the easiest DIY(do it yourself) paint jobs when it comes to doing it yourself, and we highly recommend truck bed liner if you are an off-roader because it gives the exterior of your Jeep a rugged and easy-to-clean surface.

All you have to do is spray off the mud when you get home.

Sell Your Leftover Paint

If you buy a gallon of each painting stage(primer + base coat + clear coat), you could potentially get the job done with just half of each gallon.

You’ve now purchased paint at a better price and have enough to paint another Jeep.

There’s an opportunity to give your friend or an online consumer your extra paint without losing money on the project while still ensuring you had enough for the job.

Find The Best Paint Shop Price

Remember to shop around when getting a price for your paint job. If there are multiple body shops in your area, call and get estimates from each one for the best pricing.

There are shops like Maaco that offer a one-stage polyurethane paint job for dirt cheap, but we recommend you hire your locally owned body shops before all else despite the price.

Note: Don’t forget to read online reviews to make sure the company you are hiring isn’t going to end up giving you a horror story to tell.
