I would not recommend Maaco. I've heard bad experiences with them. Expect to pay anywhere from $1000 - $1700 for paint and installation for a good quality body shop.

Eurorev will do it for $1000 paint or $2500 for paint and parts (mtech aero kit). I'm guessing they'll paint other stuff for $1g.

It's so tempting, but I have to wait for this insurance claim I made through this chick who rear ended me. Sigh.

Isn't Maaco that company that used to have that commercial 10 years ago that went something like this..."I'm Earl Sheib and I'll paint any car for $99.95, Riiiiiiight!" Hahahaha! If so, stay away!
