Maaco?

[Allanon1313]

Ok has anybody gotten a Maaco paintjob? Or better yet work there? I need to paint my car, but I'm on a budget. I need a good cheap paintjob. I was looking into the signeture job. Is it worth it? Is it a good quality? Any help would be great. I got an estimate from a local paint shop that he would put my kit on and wire up a few lights (which i can do myself) and paint it for $2500+. I have around $2000 to paint a 95 grand am SE with a kit. Is this a good amount? If you can't tell I'm clueless, I'll admit it.

2500 is a good price, maaco is crapco, will chip before a year

Maaco has some of the best equipment, and bodymen around.. They can do some very nice work..
But as they say, You get what you pay for..
They've got a bad name because of the Budget paint jobs they offer that dont include proper bodywork, prep, and use a low grade paint.. But Its because thats what the customer wants to pay for, its not because they cant do good work..

Do the prepwork yourself, and save a few bucks...
A tip I learned from the rally crowd.
