What up Fellas,
Most of us will be getting our our $600 or more rebate checks this month and are looking for ways to spend it.
Im leaning towards getting my car repainted cus its bad, real bad , im a lil embarrased how bad the paint looks. So i have a few questions. Has anyone had any good experiences with Earl scheib or Maaco? Can someone recommend a good paint shop within 2 hours of philly that can get er done for less than $1000?

lol please dont cheap out on paint.. ONLY IF YOU'RE DESPERATE. (Like me. I hated that black currant pearl and I would do anything to get rid of it, for a couple years before getting a new one)

LOOK AT MY CAR IT'S FUGLY, BAD PAINT.

for those of you who dont know how maaco works.... its so cheap because they paint over your paint and then throw some clear coat on it to hold for a few years.

if you primer and prep your car they'll paint it and you can pay extra for them to clear coat it more than minimum.

if you want a new paint job, save your money and get exactly what you want . i know it doesnt sound fun or cool or whatever, but if you think you're upset at your current paint job then you're gonna be hella pissed in 2 years when your paint starts flaking off and your car looks 10x worse.

i just think that spending 2k on a paint job is a lil crazy. thats like a down payment or an old used accord or max.
