Question Maaco Paintjob?

I am thinking about getting a maaco full paint job on my gt and was wondering if anyone has gotten one before and how it turned out? Also I heard they use cheap material and the paint peels is this true?

Re: Maaco Paintjob?

Yeah, I agree with Jetts. A good paint job will last a long time so might as well just do it right the first time. My buddy spent 3K+ on his paint job but it was SWEET!!! My old roommate on the otherhand spent I thinnk about $500 on his paint job and it looks good from a distance but when we came up close to it and looked at fine detail....it looked kinda weird. :o/ Either way, good luck bros!!!
