There is a guy in Newark, OH (don't remember the shop) who does painting for $500 if you prep it. I don't like the sounds of it, becuase of the simple fact that if you don't prime it right, your paint will not hold. I have a buddy who said he'd do mine for free who used to work at a reputable body shop and has won a few car shows himself... He told me if I prep, he'll do it free. He'll also make sure I prep it right, but he's wanting to teach me the ways of the painter so to speak.


God graced us with intelligence, let's use it.
