i've done half ass paint jobs myself. I've also spent $250 + just for 1 gallon of good paint, let alone the rest of the materials needed to do a paint job. If there is any amount of body work to be done, I expect to pay $600, and that's doing it myself. So in my opinion, anybody who's offering a paintjob for $250 isn't gonna do quality work, just shove it in, mask it, spray it shove it out. I've had sex that takes longer than to do than a maaco paint job. hahaha

If u want a good paint job done on ur car (depending on the condition of ur car) its gonna cost ya bout 2000$, i used to do it for 1800$
A good body shop will charge ya at least 30-40$ an hour for a good Quality job thats gonna last ya.
