going back ain't neccisarily going to fix anything...

I went back to some sh!t shop with my last car (after getting it fixed after getting hit) literally 4 times...

the last one I just said...

"So you guys get 4 opportunities to do a half decent job and you can't even manage that???... No that's ok I'll just let it be... I'm not bringing it back here free or not."

It's pointless... I'd take pics and sue... if you have the time & or money...

it'll probobly cost you more then you'll get though...

it's a lose lose situation.

I've seen a local maaco here put out NICE "ambassador" paint jobs...

My buddy's buddy got his dumptruck done there... didn't even wash it first but the paint looked mint (from what he said.)

I've only seen one good maaco paint job myself though...

Most of the time it all depends on how much and the quality of prep YOU do... if you send it there on a flatbed with everything sanded primed and taped off... it CAN come out REALLY good.
