So. You have a Maaco paint job right now? And they blended the colors of the kit to match the car? Or you had the whole car done? When did you get it done, where at, and how is it holding up? What's the warranty?

they did my whole car and door jambs for 800 bucks. they sanded my car did all the prep work. they even took out s few dents for cheap. they did a good job. people who saw my car at the meet all liked the paint. ok i have my prrof of sale in hand. $200 for prep plus service (highest) $500 for supreme paint job (secound highest) there wasa sale going on also. door Jambs $100 extra $800 total.
the warrenty is on cracking peeling fading least thats what it says. but so far so good. just take care of ur paint. after 2 months of hanving the new paint i washed it down with dawn to take all residue off then polished it with megiars number 2. then waxed it with megiars NXT wax. the paint cant really be harmed like this.
