So alot of you who have seen my car probably notice that hey you need a paint job buddy! haha so I was just curious as to who does good paint jobs, where should I go and who can hook me up. Granted I might not be looking for a paint job for a month or so I think I wanna get the exhaust done first but I hate having my car look the way it does. So lets have it, who where and how much!!

Also what you think I should paint it just black like original or do something else? I'm thinking a high gloss black.

Keep it black. Not only will it cost less for you but it will also look better and be more durable. Then put that extra money you saved by keeping it black into a nice set of sticky tires and bling, bling wheels.

Not completely. I painted it the stock color but I did have the doorjams, inside the trunk, inside the engine repainted. I also took off all my molding myself. Took the head and tail lights out. It was very time consuming but well worth it.

flat black rattlecan... the car will look decent that way and you wont be burning a lot of money on a paintjob... because even the cheap ones arent cheap.

Mine cost me 1K. I'm sure your car needs about the same or less body work. I did get a little deal from sending other people to him but I'm sure he could get close to my price.
