But Philippines? isn't that the land of dirt cheap labor costs?

Well, commodities and services cost a lot there in the US, but you earn big money too. Here commodities and services are dirt-cheap compared to there, but people earn a looot lower than people there. Although the cost-of-living-to-salary ratio is lower compared to what you have, unfortunately it is still not considered affordable since as non-necessities such as car tuning (as compared to house repair) are charged incredibly high.
FYI, A decent paint "washover" can go as low as $500 including labor and paint and all. a $600 paint job is already superb, an $800 paint job is carshow quality already, probably with pocket change.
