Default New Paint Job

This is a before and after pic of my car. Before it was a grape color with a grey bumper and a carbon fiber hood that has now faded to crap. Now its a Gloss Black with Metallic Gold Flakes and Eagle Alloy (SI Replicas). Just wondering what ya'll thought, Thanks!!!

The lip and mud flaps are paint matched but the side skirts are still the original faded black color

thanks for the comments people!!!! By looking at it you could never tell that Maaco did it. I got their higher dollar service and the one here does really good work. Like everyone says "you get what u pay for". It was originally $2900 and some change, and he gave me a military discount and he had other specials going on so I got it for $2032. That included all body damage repair and body prep and paint with Integrated Clear Coat and 4 year warranty. I've had the car since 2003 and this is by far the best it has ever looked, just wish my Invader CF hood wasnt messed up.
