It depends who does the job, but I have seen them done right and it looks insane. I will tell you that is very expensive and would not recommend it for a daily.

I don't like agreeing with people, especially Sol(you know I love ya) but he is right. It can look very good or very bad.

No door handles, it has poppers. Air silenoids that pop the door open. Pretty cool untill they stop working. Personally I wouldnt Kandy an Expedition but thats just me. Leave that to the old school impalas and cadis. For a Kandy done right your looking at $6,000 plus.

More like $10-15,000 for 10 coats! In my area a standard paint job runs between $4-5000.

it depends on the base color and the actual color your painting, and if you actually find a good painter, candy paint jobs tiger stripe easily

Would be bada$$!!! but not for a daily driver rocks/bugs will eat the paint on front end up, when I finally paint my truck all white I was thinking of putting a pearl on it too but won't do it as long as its my daily driver maybe ill get another grocery getter once I stop traveling TDY

everyone brought good/valid points to mind...i thought about shaved doors too...with a manual release just incase the poppers malfunctioned...still a thought...that green expy is to outlandish...i am looking for a green...darker green...i wonder if they could make the estate green into a kandy? the bugs will kill me...maybe i'll stick with a pearl and flake it out...
