it was like 300 something

Its hard finding a reputable place around here, everyone is out to get your money, but someone backed into my car in a parking garage and I had to get it fixed

Maaco was the only company I heard of before.

Seriously though sorry to hear that. Your poor car deals with so much abuse! I say go with this color from Maziora. No, not the Maziora Torched Penny.

CoreyAnn, Allie and I saw a Honda that color yesterday it looked good!

My brother had his car repainted there because it was like 5 different colors and he was a poor high school student. The paint started to fade, bubble, crack, chip and flake off about 1 - 2 years later. but that was about the time he got a new car anyway so worked out for him. he paid $500 for the whole car to be repainted.

This was a week after you spent $200 to get the $400 kit installed.

I think they can do almost any color.. you just pay for it.

So after I found out the cost to get it all fixed right.. basically I don't have the coin for it.. Ugh..

That kind of leaves you stuck, Will.

For my curiosity, what was the cost for "just a full paint job" on a box at a good shop? (If you don't mind saying.)

They will do any color, but the paint is of low quality. We painted my bro's car the blue from the Subaru WRX it was a good match too.

KK - Please PM me the shops contact info

Tomas - Well without touching the hatch but to take the kit down to nothing, block sand it right as there are TONS of waves in it, 2500.. I haven't heard back on full paint but I am guessing 5-6k with door jams and such..
