Wow, all the prices stated here seem really cheap! I had a very good body shop (local) quote me $6000 to do the same color it already is. Now they are VERY reputable. I guess every truck is a little different. Mine is two-tone, and does have the factory pin-striping, and body molding. And obviously more prep time goes into a 4-door rather than a regular cab.

But looking back now, this body shop is pretty ****, they told me they would remove the bed to get the rear of the cab, and remove all the glass to get under the molding strip.

I priced that factory pin-striping from Ford & they quoted me like $200 for the lower and $300 for the upper! Man they are proud of that stuff!

For the cab only on my flatdeck I was quoted $1200 by a local body shop.
I thought that was pretty good as the last truck I had painted cost $3500 to do the whole thing.
