Which Maaco did you go to? What did you have Maaco do for you (prep, clear, wetsand, etc...) and how much did it set you back??? Did they supply the paint and what brand did is it?

I'm only asking cause it looks GREAT for a Maaco job!!

I did all the prep and body work myself.. i dont trust them for prep worth of shyt.... as far as paint goes its Dupont Nason paint i believe.. im sure not the greatest, but i made sure i prepped it well.. it is a Ford Factory torch red color from an 04 cobra tho..

edit: the macco was in bricktown, on route 88.. and the entire thing was $470 since i didnt have the jambs or anything done.. the color is so close you cant even tell anyways!

Looks great! I would paint that pinch-weld area under the doors flat black, and make it 'disappear'. Other than that, I think A+ for the Maaco job!

Looks sharp. It is a good feeling getting the stang back after the fresh paint. Can't beat that for 470.

 

[Busted07]

That looks great man!!!!

wow! Even if you have to repaint it 3-4 years down the road (which you won't have to), you STILL made out!! Looks 110% better than it used to!
