id hate to say it but Macco! We drove up to the one in maple shade b/c we felt it was decent up there. The paint its self was 800 but came to grand sumthing with body work. Yea there is some flaws but Im still in school and I no it will get dinged up in the parking lot and such. If you do happen to go there. Prep your car a little. Like the underneath. My whole unerneath is painted also which i didnt want. Other then that The dude nick was cool and I though it was a great job for a macco job.

macco isnt that bad, their people skills are off, but If you tell them verry detailed instructions on what you want, they will do an awsome job!

Ah, yea the Maaco on rt. 38. Its literally 2 minutes from my house. I seen their work before on my buddies 86 SC and a another buddies 89 Firebird.
I wasn't impressed when they painted the weather stripping on the T-Tops. But your cars looks good in the pics, maybe they got better....

Why didn't you go to the one in Turnersville? A friend of mine had his truck painted there and it turned out pretty nice... He said that he told them a million times before he left that he didn't want any paint on his tires or his exhaust lol..

well I live in turnersville so yea it was weird that we didnt go there. BUt my father went looking at all the maccos and got prices from all of them and that one was the most and plus they told us there was alot wrong that they would of had to fix. They said theyd have to bring my whole car to metal just b/c my front bumper had spider cracks in it. The macco in milville was decent but there is a blue 64 Impala there that the guy took his own time to strip everything from it for paint and yet his chrome stipping was oversprayed real bad. The maple shade was the best price, best work and the dude is cool as hell. Real honest and ****. My tires had no over spray nor my weather stripping nor anything else really. Just the underneath was over sprayed. At maple shade they did a great job taping. The only thing that pissed me off was they left sratches in my perfect ttops. damn bastards!!!
