You want a cheap paint job but you don't want to go to Maaco....
Therein lies the issue...you can't have cheap and quality at the same time.
My recommendation is to call a couple of paint places near you and find out what they charge.....it's called research

Ya they are going about it kinda rough but they all have a valid point. There really is no such thing as cheap and good, cheap and ok, or cheap and anything when it comes to paint and body work. Unless you do it yourself or know a friend of a friend who can hook it up plan to dish out a nice chunk. More often then not just repainting the whole care is a little more then just fixing minor stuff. So for my .02 cent I'll just say this. Go get some estimates at places close to you then see what Maaco can do and just decide from there. Every car is different when it comes to paint and body work so ball parking stuff on the internet is hard. Good luck on your hunt and if you end up finding a good place let me know cause I'm still searching myself but I can't afford the prices I'm being quoted. I could buy a new shell for half what I'm being quoted lol

Contact Performance Autobody in Alexandria. They are no Maaco but their rates are reasonable and they do good work.
