    I'll get it installed but I'll add a switch so I can turn it on/off.

    Does anyone know how much on average and where I should go for a paint job (entire car)?

    A complete repaint? .... Not gonna be cheap man. I did all the prep work on my brothers gt4 celica, pulled the glass, all the trim, installed a TRD kit, then a buddy of mine painted it. I estimated it was about 100 hours if you pull everything apart. So I'm guess ing shop rate $50-80 plus materials you'd be looking at 6-8k for a nice quality base/clear type paint job.

    A quick lower quality paint job using single stage paint would run around 4-5k

    I've heard that the older Evo's are known to snap drive shafts under hard launches when you start getting in the 350whp+ range so that might be worth considering.
