if your not looking to spend much...Id do the prep work myself (sanding)to avoid the problems with peeling and flaking that you can get with cheaper paint jobs!!! Good luck!

wassup, as far as getting a price quote from MOBWORKS, i would suggest you to take your car over there to get a price. There work is awesome, if you were there at the Scali meet, they had about 7-8 sweet rides over there. check out the website, pics will be constantly updated and there will be a lot of the Scali bbq pics on the site. MOBWORKS autobody and paint enhancement is located in the City of Orange. 714-633-9355, ask for Miguel and check out mobworks.com. thanks

if u got some minor dents i would see a PDR(paintless dent removal) specialists to do that before i go get paint. thats what i did. i had bad hail damage and he got it all out. if there is somebody in your area that does it then definitely go for it.

thanks for the info on MOBWORKS. i will definetely check them out. not too far from home anyways. maybe this weekend. i am looking to spend about 2500 at the most.... since i am not doing a color change, and i need to have my side skirts drilled in and rivoted on. and basically i want to go jet black. my car is already black. so i am hoping that is isnt a big deal. thanks mudball.

yeah..if u going for the same color..u can usually get away with just a good exterior coat..i did this..went to milano red again. the doors jams, under barm trunk, etc was already this color so it saved some money.
