Not sure if it is possible to get a good paint job for cheap. Maaco is probably the cheapest, but I have read mixed reviews about them. The $400 one is the paint job that most people choose when they have no cash for a paintjob.

Yea, I have seen that shop, how are their prices? I need a few touch ups also. The place I went to before was in Pacifica, they are not cheap tho. It is called Hacks Auto Body. Right by the McDonalds on Manor Drive exit. However, they do excellent work. Installed my body kit and repaired my sides, some hater keyed it. Paint matches perfectly.

i have got all my mouldings, side skirts, and door handles painted all for 200 flat...they did a great job ...but when i wanted to get my front/rear lips painted they quoted me around 300 which was was way expensive to me...cause both my side skirts are like the same amount of body to paint like my lips and they charged me 200 for the side skirts with extra items, and now 300 for just the lips?? soo im guessin when there in a good mood or when its not too busy they would hook it up a bit... ...by the way i then got my lips painted somewhere else for 190...it beats 300...
