What color are the door jams? Under the hood doesnt make much of a difference unless you want to show the car but you should still keep the paint to protect it from the heat. So they will paint the body kit as well? I was quoted for my whole car over a grand

$900 is a killer deal if you've got a Maaco with a good painter. We've got several Maacos in OKC and only one is worth going to if and only if "Pat" is painting your car. All the rest of the painters do crap work. If you've seen their work and your'e satisfied with it, I say go for it.
