Has anyone repainted their Jalpa. Mine has its original paint, however the paint is fading slightly with signs of crows feet and cracking due to the original Italian lacquer paint. I took it to a detail place to see if they could buff out some of the imperfections and luckly I only allowed them to do the rear trunk as they made matters even worse. Any idea of cost and maybe someone can recommend a reputable company in the Tampa Fla area. Thanks in advance.

I would brace yourself. Probably 3k on the low side, 6k average! Unless it really looks bad, I would just enjoy it. I have seen some waxes work on paint that I thought was shot, you might try a few before you do it.

I have a friend from Sicily that painted my car and did a amazing job and because hes a friend, he treated me good. After nine years of sitting in a garage with the cover on it did'nt do the paint well. I had it repainted in Alfa red. And love it. My cars is two tone. With the engine cover and t-top in black. It was a $2500 job, but worth it. Some paint you can save with a good wax, but my front was faded and needed a new paint.
