That paint job looks good people always tell me to stay away from maaco but I guess it just depends on where you go did you prep it yourself or had them do it ??

yea alot of people told me not to go to Macco because they do a ****ty job, but u never know before you try it. So I prep the car and sanded my car as much as I can with just my hands(no power tools were used), i think i did a bomb as job(Macco says it too during the estimate). I wanted to stick with silver color, but a much more darker silver of the OEM Silver. So I went with the 1 year warranty paint job($250). It cost me $390 out the door because my car was pretty much dent free.(I also had a discount too that's why). They took only 3 days to finish my car. It was nice and smooth with no over spray and only minor orange peels. I was satisfied.
