I am considering getting a cheap Maaco pait job for my 240sx. I dont want to spend a whole lot of money but I want something that looks better thatn a faded clear coat. Is Maaco decent or is it just crap?

i had my car painted at maaco and it lasted good for about 2 years. if you ask me its a pretty good deal consdering what it only cost 400-600 dollars compared to paying 1300 for a paint job. yes the quailty of the 1300 is better but maaco is good enough... make sure u ask around for people who have used that maaco because different maaco's will do different jobs. some are real goo while other suck

yeah, although i didn't pay for it.. i could almost garauntee maaco painted my car, and it's crap.. door jams are not painted... underneath side mirrors u can still see some primer.... the tape job was sloppy so u can still see pieces of red on the edges of my car...

so if ur gonna go macco make sure u know they are a good one...

I went to maaco on TARA BLVD and I paid like $700.00
it came up that much cause I had body damage on the
hood and hatch now I have a carbon fiber hood & hatch
so havin that done was a waste of money. See a old guy
name LES if he is still there
