lol as long as the cars on a damned grayscale, i dont know who would shell out the extra $1000 just to paint door jambs...maybe if you remove all the trim yourself and seal up your interior.

and engine bay is definitely out of the question, just ridiculous.

seriously no one would notice:

girls (your typical girls) dont pay attention to cars at all
and car guys could give a crap...maybe if youre a ricer and dont wanna be made fun of at the strip when you open your door.

Id rent out a paint booth, my friend painted his truck for like $300paint and free garage space with a light sand job, still looks good

Hello all,

I know a lot of you have pm'ed me concerning prices for parts, bumpers, hoods, or whole cars resprayed, or fixed and painted. Our prices are actually a third of what another quality body shop would charge you. It's not just hand us your car and we whip out a spray gun and spray.. There is a lot of prep work involved. My partner and I are dedicated and take pride in our work.

We have seen Maaco and Miracle Auto Body paint jobs just 2 months after they are done. The paint is bubbling up and or clear coat is already bubbling up or have unsightly drip marks in many cases. We have fixed their work, having to start all over again to fix it right. Pay twice or pay once to have the job done right.

We don't just do Suby's. We do all cars. We just started to do Suby's to help out the Suby community. We have had a few I-Club members do their car's and they are coming back with more work. We have a lot of business from the Porsche 914 club too. We just want to have satisfied and happy customers with the end product..

You guys should pimp out an I-Club account with some vendor status, my friend.
