Default Questions about getting my civic painted

I have an Ej1 and it is currently painted flat black. Looking to get it painted soon and looks like I have 2 affordable options: Maaco or Econo Paint. Anyone ever get their car painted at either place? did they do a good job? Lemme know. Thanks guys! and btw... what color should I paint it? I was thinking maybe Red or White. Or maybe just back glossy black.

I've heard Maaco isn't too bad if you do your own prep work (taping and stuff). You sort of get what you pay for with a paint job.

Save your money and get it done by a good shop. It will cost you even more than the price of a good paint job when you have to sell your car or look at your maaco POS paintjob.
