Man, I went to maaco to get a quote on a paint job on a 4 piece body kit(not the whole car) and to remove a SLIGHT dent in my door he definatley quoted $1100!!! I luaghed and said thanks but no thanks. Id rather buy 30 cans of spray paint and a Ding King and call it a day. biggrin.gif Just a heads up, they wanted blood.

" Just for the record... the quality of a paint job usually comes down to the quality of the prep work... If a car is prepped properly, paint jobs done by those cheapo shops can turn out nice.

Maaco general doesn't prep a car very well, but I've heard of people prepping the car themselves and taking their car to Maaco with nice results. "

Yep, we used to say about Maaco " If you want matching interior, just leave the windows down"
Seriously though, I know a lot of small/part time car dealers that do all the prep work and then take it to Maaco to get the paint sprayed. Which is not a bad deal if you are going to sell it soon.
