If you search macco paint jobs in newgroups, you will find so many upset customers who had crappy paint jobs, paint was flaking after a few months, overspray, dull finish within months. Most of this is due to their low price, you get minimal prepration, and poor quality work. What do you expect if you are paying $500 to have a car repainted. Good luck with theit 5 year guarantee, its unlikely they will re-do the work, and even if they do, it probably won't match what was there. In the end you get what you pay for. Macco is not even say like the walmart of car painting, they are more like a street vendor in my opinion.
