I wouldn't go to a Maaco if you were paying for my work to get done. One of my customers had his doors painted so we could put them on for him. There were deep D A and grinder marks that were gouged into the metal that weren't there before and clearly weren't covered up. There were unpainted spots all over them, runs like a 5 year old did it with a spray paint can and over spray all over the door panels. The new paint even had heavy swirl marks and a couple scratches. It was the most half ass work I have ever seen. They didn't even touch up the scratches they put into it. They said they were in that condition when they got there and wanted 500 on top of the 250 he paid to make them look better.

Exactly why I said "on lip kits" I wouldn't go to them to do body work and paint my car but all 3 people who I've seen their lip kits painted by maaco are a good color match and only have a little orange peel, but who cares on a lip kit.

of course, it also matters where you go... I hear tipping your painter 50 bucks personally, will insure a GREAT job, haha.
