from the glorious Maaco. Paid $850 total for the whole thing. Took it back twice, after they didnt fix a run in it they finally repreped the driver fender and reshot it. I am really happy with the way it turned out...now i just need a new set of wheels and tires and ill be good to go...

if you remember at all, I crashed into a fence in Janurary drifting around a corner in the snow :) I recently got a Sonoma bed for it and took it in to get painted. Good job considering everyone else wanted $1500 to even touch it.

Looks good! I am leaning towards maaco if/when ever I get to the paint portion of my truck.

Nice paint! Too bad your rims won't fit on my truck or I would say I could take 'em off your hands when you get new ones.

Is it base and clear or a single stage paint?

How much would a decent paint job cost me for say... my 3000GT? I want to go from White to a nice black...

I dont have much faith in Maaco. Don't get me wrong, it looks awesome. Its just a buddy had his painted there and it looked faded in about 6months. That was the $200 dollar deal though.

Their $200 job is obviously really ****ty, no one will ever get a good job done for $200. I paid $850 like stated so they took maybe just a bit more time on mine :)
as for rims. Enemy I would seriously consider trading you wheels, maybe some cash on either side, but a trade could be a possiblility....

well, i got some brand new tires on mine, but they are a lil bit "weathered" from years of driving, I'd like to find a nice set for "summer" wheels, and then swap these on, mounted with snow tires, for winter duties. just thinking out loud, you let me know after you find yourself some new wheels.
