That's another reason why people who own a Mustang should never put thousands of dollars into expensive paint jobs on their cars. And this is just another reason why I don't take my own Mustangs to places like theater and shopping mall parking lots. Spending $2,000 or $3,000 to $5,000 for a paint job on a Mustang is NOT worth it, period. It's ridiculous. At some point in time the car is going to get dinged, scraped or keyed by some degenerate. So, what is your friend going to do now after his car was all keyed? If I were your friend, I would take it to a Maaco this second time around and have them repaint it for under $1,000 and it will look just as good as new again.My friend just had his 5.0L painted. Anyways after he got out of a movie to get back to his car the entire car had been keyed. NICE F***IN 5.0L was keyed into the hood and roof. He had just forked out the dough for the new paint job. To bad someone didn't do that before he painted it.

After 5 years of ownership, my 02 Mustang V6 was hit while it was parked by a bunch of illegal Equadorians who live in my neighborhood. After something like this happens, your car is not the same ever again. I got my car fixed, but it has a gap problem with the headlight unit and the front fender and there's orange peel on the bottom part of the front bumper. Right now, I have to wait to see if I can save up a few hundred dollars and bring it to a Maaco to get the front bumper taken and sanded down and repainted again. They also have to adjust the header headlight panel which I think is the cause of the gap problem. But in no way am I going to spend thousands of dollars to repaint my Mustang. It's not worth it. A good high quality $800 to $1,000 paint job from Maaco is a lot better than spending $2,000, $3,000 and $5,000 for a paint job and then getting your car keyed. At least with a $800 to $1,000 Maaco paint job, you can repaint the car again for under $1,000 if you had to if it ever got keyed. That's just my .02 cents though. I don't believe in throwing away my money at for a piece of metal which only depreciates and loses value and which will eventually rust out and/or need major repairs when it reaches high miles. A car is nothing but a money pit from the first day that you own it.
