Hey Tim!

 

How much are you looking to spend mrs. sara? (im assuming thats your name by tim's hello)

if you just want it a color and medocre results, i would say one of the upper paint jobs by maaco. if youve got like 1500ish go for Dreamworks. Just remeber, you get what you pay for.

 

Does it need body work? Check your PMs...

 

Ewww yea don't cheap out on paint jobs.. not that you would but trust me. Good OEM paint jobs are ~4k ish. Good metallic paint jobs use primer coats, base coats, primary coat, then clear coat. Multiple layers of each might be required.

In any event, I'll see what I can find out about paint shops. At the very least get something with a flex agent or clear coat. No clear coat = salt eats it up, color gets on cloth when waxing, sun fade, etc.

Better to wait a couple more months or fit in a few more hours to save up and get something you will stay happy with.

edit: Oh, hi..

 

You should check out Auto Graphicks on Bonney road in Virginia Beach. It may be a little more than you may be looking to spend, but they do a really good job and the end you will be glad you did it. The number is 431-0605. If nothing else, you can take it by and get an estimate.....

Hey, next time you're over w/ Christine, talk to me, I can get you a great deal by a guy my dad knows... (My hood was painted for free )
