Any of you guys know anybody in the So Cal area that does paint out of their garage, and does quality stuff. Or a good shop for the money, basically i could spend a thousand, and I just wanna get the best paintjob possible. Thanks guys

better get maaco...

 

Nobody in their right mind will do a profesonal job for that amount. Try around 2K. Also don't let anyone paint it out of their garage. It will have dust nibs all over it .

 

yeah, you need a paint booth to do it properly

 

In florida 1000 is a damn fine pro paintjob. I guess in Cali its a little more rich?

 

For 1000 Bucks you can get a professional job done in NY all you have to do is prep the body yourself get some sand paper (obviously the right texture) and start sanding and prime the car yourself if you have acess to a sprayer. Then take it to a pro to spray the body and clear coat it I have preped 3 cars and took them to get sprayed for 700 bucks each and the cars look mint just make sure to take your time preping the car and learn alittle bit in the process

 

earl scheib....another alternative to maaco...I have heard quality is a little better too.... for under a grand that's what your lookin at...

 

I know there are good paint jobs out there for like 800 bucks, there is no damn way im gonna spend 2k on a paint job, its not a show car, i just want it to look nice. Thanks for all the replies though i guess.

 

like they said fl is cheap so cal must be a little more rizty, but anyways my car was painted for 300 bucks no door jams of course which i hate but damn the outside is the ****, it's 01 audi cashmiere, did a great job just one flaw on the bumper there is a little run, no biggie though it's a daily driver, i got it painted at econo bake
