What is the material going to cost? Seems a little low to me for paint and install.

Since this is for a friend... it gets tricky. Figure how much material (including paint) will cost and estimate how long it will take. Figure working around everything and all that. Then determine what you want to make on an hourly or job basis. Its tougher since its for a friend/neighbor. You have to live wiht this guy... but your time and effort is worth something.
