paint experiences in MD DE Nova PA...

[ill4noreason]

Hi I am looking to get a cheap paint job on my coupe it is not perfect and I know it will never be a show car so I am looking for people who have actually took their car to a shop and got a cheap paint job for recommendations of where to go. I am in Baltimore but am close enough to DE NOVA PA that if it is like an hour and a half away that's fine. I am definitely gonna get it sprayed and would like others opinions on places to go. I just want it to be shiny for a year or two by then I'll have a sweet touring and my vert will be finished this car will be my dd. Maaco is cheapest so far. Any particular ones?

I heard Frederick Maaco DOES a good job....

college park maaco did this paintjob for a grand. it was decent. they seemed incapable of not having paintdrips at the door handles, (it was done twice. different drips. same exact spot.) overspray on the radiator.

but for a grand? not bad at all. shiny and new.

I figure I'll pull all lights and other parts I don't want sprayed. I'm gonna do most of the prep work myself. besides fixing the front bumper/valance which I'm taking to a friends body shop to get a quote. thanks for the input so far. Anyone use a Baltimore shop?
