Default 2 - 3'x3' signs printed & Mounted...price?

I was given the opp. to make 2 signs for a local recycling company for their yard, I know the owner through my other job and he is giving me a shot at his sign biz. He wouldn't tell me any pricing he currently pays as he wants to see what I can do for him.

2 signs 3' x 3' printed on oracal calendared laminated with 3M cast Over Lam.

The signs are solid yellow with a 1" red border all the way around. Black Text:

LEEDS
CUSTOMERS
ALL DRIVERS MUST CHECK WITH SCALE BEFORE DUMPING

LETTERS RANGE FROM 6" TO 2"

I am mounting to a piece of plywood or prefferrably a piece of aluminum. I know the other signs that were made for him were just cut vinyl on a painted plywood.

It only took me 5 mins to design and 1 hour on the printer to print both signs, I had 30" material so it is seamed in the middle where there aren't any letters.

What should I charge for this?

I figured 30" x 8ft of vinyl & same for lam... extra 2 feet for contour cutting after lam 6"-8" extra per piece.

Does around $100 per signs sound out of reason? I was thinking of even more???

Does this sound reasonable or way off track? This could lead to me doing all 3 of his facilities as well as his fleet although unlikely since the other 2 and the fleet are an hour away... but ya never know!! Business of any form is still business.

Thanks
