Cost of Paint and Bodywork?!

No, a 20K paint job should be better than that. A lot. I just had a friend get his 48 Ford Coupe painted. Spent 14.5K. It looks worse than a Maaco paint job. It's just awful. I know who did it, too and they should be ashamed. Trash in it. Fisheye, runs, horrible prep work and on and on. I wouldn't expect perfection for that money, but a whole lot better than what he got. Also, they originally quoted him a solid 10K. He told them he just wanted a decent "driver" job. It came in almost 5K over budget and looks like hell. I could have done a better job. Drunk.

Neighbor paid 3500 at Maaco for his mustang… it’s not perfect, needed to have a finish wet sanding but overall for the cost it looks fantastic.

I want better than my neighbors paint job though.
