Re: How much to expect to pay for a nice paint job?

I've been to George's (2dwn4u) shop and have seen the Rivi' at Goodguys Pleasanton and at the shop and believe me this ain't no MACO job. They also had a old VW in the shop that looked like the paint was still wet. If you've seen great jobs and MACO jobs side by side, you will know the difference. I agree it is expensive but spend just a week at your job and tell me how much you get paid as a professional "whatever" and think about doing one paint job for 6 months or more compared to MACO 3 day turn around and it starts to make sense.
