Any suggestions on where to get my car painted?
 
Well, I am thinking about getting my car painted. Right now it's grey and I want it black.

The thing is that I don't know a lot of local shops around here, and I am a little skeptical about taking it to Maaco :crazy:

I would seriously appreciate any suggestions!:yes:

Well, don't take it to Maaco. Basically, I'd go around to a few shops and check them out in person, maybe look at some of their work, and get quotes.

Talk to friends and shop around to find the best price. It really helps to know people in the bussiness. My friends all paint and do body work. Thank god cuz you would think a crash dummy drove my car.

lol, yeah, I guess that's probably my best option.

You should see my roof:crazy:

sand and primer.

oh, i see. Well, the thing is that I don't wanna mess up something, so better not take any risks.

Anyways, does anybody know an aproximate so I know how many body parts I'm going to sell to afford this? I guess it has to be more than $300, just guessing by Maaco's prices...
