how much are you willing to pay? it's pretty easy and fun but if you dont want to do it then wel... i used to do it all the time to my frames when i was into bmx if your kinda lost theres guides on the interwebs for it 1.sand 2.prime 3.paint 4.coat (if u want) ill do your entire bike for $20 and have it done next day, ill buy the paint thats a pretty good deal. (frame, fork, bars, seatpost, and whatever else) i can also do fades if you want a cool look, or splatter effects are cool and gives your bike an 80's look.

Do NOT sand a frame if it's carbon fiber. Seriously.

I don't know what kind of bike's involved, that thought just sent shivers down my spine. I know a guy who bought a $4k bike and he's getting a custom paint job on it, I know it would kill him if somebody tried to sand down that frame.

I have a female's bike. I wasn't able to afford anything around your friends budget. I really dont want to do it because I have no experience painting. I have no baking room, nor a method of application. My bike is pink and it's just like this one..

it's not hard to paint a bike. take the tires off, take the chain and seat off. and just spray paint the damn thing and then put a coat of sealer on it.

I'd like a flat-ish light black. I'll provide money for the paint.
