At first i was a bit hesitant about macco......but my cousin used it on his Audi and i must say it was impressive....and i just saw a commerical (not sure if its just a Jersey thing) but they were advertising the ambassador paint (the 399 one) for half price.....so if your gonna do it i would definalty take advantage of that soon!! Post some pics if you do it wink.gif

Your probably looking at between $200-$300 bucks for getting those pieces painted, including materials and labor. If money is an major issue then go for just painting the pieces. But if you think you can get some more cash then I'd recommend painting the whole think, so the pieces won't look so much newer than the car.

I was quoted a K to get my stuff painted at a local shop. And that wasnt including any adjusting the kit may need. That was a total rip off, didnt go there. but should you should be able to find it under $500

macco is good if you have a ****ty car and plan to repaint it once a year. if you want the paint to last, dont go macco

I think that macoo has some better quality offers, not just the cheap 1 shot deal. its worth checking out.

i guess the point is that if you think your getting a deal on paint it means your getting a crappy paint job. The maaco guys know how to paint. But you get what you pay for. If you spend a little more with them then you might get a decent job.
