Need help with first real job estimate

[UnorthodoxCreations]

I've pretty much been car parts for friends and family but today I got asked for a quote on a real job from a local company. I really have no idea how to price something like this. I've included 2 pics showing all the pieces. They all get done in safety yellow. No holes need plugged. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'd really like to get the job but dont want to cut myself short. Whats reasonable for something like this. I think success this job could mean more from them in the future.

It looks like the prep work will be real simple, blast and shoot. I would take the jobe for $10 per part.

BTW, I don't know what "real shop" prices are. I charge $15 per part for the stuff I do and they are all small pieces similar to what you have there.

Ya, I would estamate $10 for the larger parts, $5 for the smaller ones. Overall cost of approx $250=270 fro teh works. They're pretty easy to do, but the looks. Clean and shoot. Might want to do a Zinc Phostphate coating first, to help with adheasion. Metal parts like that I just moisten a rag with Caswells Zinc Ph concentrate and wipe teh part. Just enough to moisten it. Then let part dry. Will help with long term adhesion and corrosion resistance

I just wanted to say I quoted them at $220 and got it. Probably could have gone higher but I'd rather get the job a little then not get it. They seemed real happy with pieces so now I got my foot in the door there which is what I wanted.

Right on, foot in the door, that's great. I too have done a bunch of work at reduced prices, to get the return buisness. Just did over $700 for this guys snowmobile, but because he is high profile(counterman at the Skidoo dealer) charged him just over 600. well worth it for the advertising he will do for me
