[String]

Nice! Really makes a difference. Where you get it done? The old 89 needs some paint and not sure if I want to sell it or not.

[Teds89IROC]

[NjbadSS]

[ar0ck]

Looks incredible! Huge improvement!

[DevilDougWS6]

[Tru2Chevy]

No, just get some amber bulbs to toss in instead of clear and you're all set :)

This post reminds me of a Billy May's commercial.
Billy Mays here with a fantastic new product. Look at this terrible paint on an IROC and look at it after i spread some of this fresh paint all over this car!


It looks really nice who painted it?

[Jam]

looks great man. lol I like how you cover up your license plate in 1/2 the pics and the other 1/2 you left it. fail.

[maroman88]

great color... looks awesome

[Jersyboyy]

Yo Chilies the first set of pics prob are his old license plate number so he wouldnt care-just a guess...

But yea man it looks good who painted it?

[GrandmasterCow]

looks very nice

[dmheer08]

loll FIRST OFF hahaha
about the billy mays thing
i impersonate billy mays SO GOOD! me and my friends laugh and joke about mays all the time

about the plates, no its still the same plate i just forgot to blank em out on the old pics one w/e i dont really care

lastly maaco in lakewood on rt88 did it. $1000 bucks flat

[NJ346]

Any work done to the motor?

[dmheer08]

the car just has small performance modifications...

edelbrock headers
msd ignition system
flowmaster 40
computer chip

not really anything big, i want to put bigger gears and a cam in it though soon maybe but the idiot kid i bought it from took the ac out does anyone know how much it costs to have a new system put in?? and who does it for a good price around here?

[19iroc88]

hey did maaco do all the prep too or did you do some cause that looks pretty good for maaco's reputation your making me consider takin a ride over there, you happy with the outcome? my cars startin to need paint and i like the sound of 1000 bucks flat

[String]

For 1000 I would imagine they would have done some prep. A guy I ran into a few weeks ago got his done there for 600 and he did the prep work himself.

[dmheer08]

Im extremely happy with the outcome, I drove the car around the way it was before it was painted for over 2 years

The only prep work I did myself, was remove the louvers,if that even counts. I choose the Supreme package ($479.99) One step below the top package which is $1000.
The supreme package includes all the prep work within that price. Any package below the supreme package you have to add on a prep-work package which costs 129, unless you do it yourself.

What made the price go up from 479, to me paying a thousand was:

Re-Paint Headlight Pockets
Remove Roll Stripes ($100)
Sand and Prime front cover
Repair Rear cover and Prime
Allaign Hood
Repair Hood dents
Repair right door ding below molding
Repair right fender rear edge

I had them mask off IROC-Z, and "TUNED PORT INJECTION"

[BigAls87Z28]

Holy man, you have to come out to a few meets man!! Come join us at the JSFBOA!!

[19iroc88]

did the mask off turn out good or can you tell they did it cause i may just get new decals.

if i do the prep work in house and then send it to maaco will they look over it and finish anything i missed and then paint it for a cheaper price?

sorry for all the questions i wanna see what i can do lol

[dmheer08]

Yea man, ive been wanting to...but i was honestly to ashamed of the car before. Weres JSFBOA????

The masking of was perfect, the decals look as they did before..

and im sure if you do the prep work in house and then bring it to them they will make sure everything is in order, just bring in down there to em man theyll take care of you. the guy the worked with me was very helpful and honest and i would recommend them to anyone. trust me ive put my life and sould into my car literally, i could go on for hours of stories involved with this car...i wasent goin get no **** job! :evil:
