Well, I'm taking my car down to maaco tomorrow to see what they can do for me. If they can get me a paint job with the "additonal sanding" I need to get out the scratches, nail polish (from previous owner), oxidation, etc. for under $500 then I'm going to have them do it. After almost 4 years I might finally be getting the paint job I always said I was going to get. lol. This is, unfortunately, only so I can sell the car faster since nobody wants to pay a reasonable price for a car that's in perfect condition mechanically, near perfect on the interior, but 4 different colors on the exterior.
 pics and update tomorrow

did you remove the handles, bumber, etc for paint or did they just tape stuff off and paint the car as is? if you remove stuff for them to paint would they paint it or are there additional costs for painting what not actually attached to the car?
