I also went to Maaco for a paint job. I figured, since I wasn't building a show car and that I was just sick of the sanded look, why spend a ton of money.

All in all, it cost me $360 out the door and I was happy how the car turned out. Even if the paint job doesn't last, I wouldn't have minded spending another $360 in couple years to have it re-done.

Here are the before and after pictures. You may have already seen my old S13.

Color is Nissan Slate Blue if anyone is wondering. Came out pretty good IMO.
