    Repaint

    Getting to the point where I am starting to save up for a respray on my e36. I was wondering if anyone knows of any good paint shops in the southbay? I need a few dings filled and sanded and just a respray of the exterior. I dont need a crazy repaint i just need the exterior done. Got about 2k-2500 to work with.

    Two places come to mind.
    One Day here in Orange and Fast Lane also in Orange.
    PM Monzon, he just had his e36 painted at the same One Day.
    He was really happy.

    I'm getting ready to have my M3 painted too. One or the other shops I mentioned above.

            Several e30 guys here on r3v have gone to Maaco of Sunnyvale, including me. They treated me like a king and I got a level of service that I don't think I would have gotten anywhere else.

            Ask for Oliver, he's got a project e30 M3 he's been working on. You'll have to take it in to get a quote but it will be worth it.

                girl friend did a commercial for maaco and they painted her car. She's had it for maybe a year and its already chipping. Not down with maaco.

                thanks for the responses guys, really appreciate the help.

                            Every Maaco is independently operated so quality and service can vary. Oliver's shop in Sunnyvale is great.
