Is this a good deal? Options

[6strngs]

yeah, so I was work today, and I was on my break, and I saw the automotive ads section of a newspaper sitting there on the table, so I was flipping through it when I saw this add:

http://www.earlscheib.com/coupon.php

naturally, any add with a picture of a 6gc catches my attention. anyway, I was browsing the site, and I was thinking about how my car desperately needs a paintjob (pretty bad oxidation on the roof and hood ) and was wondering if this: http://www.earlscheib.com/pro3.php was actually a good deal or not. it's not their best, nor their worst job that they offer, but the "pro 4" and "pearl package" seem to be the same thing but with an extra coat of "euro-clear" but for alot more money. just wondering, I always though paint jobs were more expensive, like $1000+ so to see one for $500-ish makes me wonder (359.95 in the coupon for that paint package)... what do you guys think?

Earl Scheib has a bad rep. Look at the car in my profile. That was painted by Earl Scheib... So it's up to you... spend half the value of the car on a paint job... or pay a couple hundreds.

I think the paint job on your car looks really good actually! except the picture with your hood open, your front bumper seems like it's not that glossy, but probably just how the light hit it or something. I really don't care if it's not 110% perfect absolute show-quality paint. my car is a daily driver that I doubt I would ever enter into a carshow. I want it to look nice, but it doesn't have to be absolute perfection.

so why does he have a bad rep?

also, which "paint package" did you get from them?
