Default Getting it painted

Right now my civic is teal, which is getting old, and now I want to get it painted black. Does anyone know of a quality paint shop around central Ohio (Columbus area) ? I am NOT taking it to Maaco, I've heard way to many complaints about their paint jobs. Also, how much will a quality paint job cost?

the qualityall depends on which maaco you go to. and i would suggest keeping it teal, black shows all flaws and is rediculous to keep clean. i'd just work with what you got, there's not that many teal civics out there compared to black.

Do you realize how expensive this proposition is?

Howard Street Body Shop in Mount Vernon, Ohio is my home shop. They are excellet and did a great job of painting my roof after they fixed it. Amazing dudes, and honest as can be.

I'll get the number for you if you're interested. Mt. Vernon is about forty minutes to an hour north of Columbus.

just repaint it teal. that way you wont have a mis-matched engine bay. A paint job that covers everything )engine bay, door jams, etc.) is a huge hit in the wallet
