Thanx all. > > It all depends on what Maaco you take it to. My mechanic recommended a Maaco for me to take my car too. Then I went to my Dads guy that does all his body work, and he actually recommended the same Macco ( I was surprised). But he said that was the only good Maaco in town and that he actyally sends his cars that he's working on for them to paint cheaper. Ask around in your town and see what kind of luck others have had. And yes you do get what you pay for, if you plan on keeping the car for a couple more years, then spring the extra 100 dollars for the better paint job, you be glad you did (and sometimes they even have a warranty - like 2 years or something).
