i got my beater corolla--which had very badly faded oem paint--repainted there last year for like $200.

it came out pretty decent, and i was satisfied with what i got. it could have used a good wetsanding, but i wasnt expecting a showroom finish for $200. they also took out a sizeable dent in my rear quater panel. i had a bit of overspray here and there, but nothing horrible.

they are franchises, so i really is hit or miss with them. you just have to look at the quality of work each one produces. i looked at the cars they had painted before i took my car there, and to tell you the truth my car would have came out better if i had spent a little time doing the prep myself. that is what they usually suck at doing. sorry to hear it was not a good experince for you...

if your gonna take yer car to some budget place then strip the car yourself cuz all these places are production paint places and only mask and do not remove unless you pay extra.

it shines some what decent in the light. the pic was taken in the shadow. you can see the sun hit the front.

here is another close up but again no sun


its a white with a green pearl.

oh a little back ground on the paint

first job was 2 different colors. tols them and the resprayed it for free. second one had a run, they then resprayed it again for free. i guess the third time the charm
