Would Maaco do this?

Would Maaco repaint JUST my roof and JUST my front bumper? That's all I need done. Would they do all the prep work too or do I have to do it? I know people take their cars there to get the whole thing repainted, but what about just parts? How much would it cost?

Is your paint the original color? If not, it might be difficult to match the color. But do your own prep work.

I've never heard of Maaco just painting one piece of the car. They're rely on mass painting, so Im not even sure if they would just paint one section. Phone them.

bring it to a local body shop and tell them to paint all the parts that you want painted and then tell them to blend it into the car. if you go to a local body shop the color will probably match alot nicer. you might pay alittle more, but it will most likely look better.

I wouldn't let Maaco paint my freaking birdhouse. I got an estimate from them to get my front end repainted due to a U-Haul trailer incident.


So basically they can do a crappy job and it's my tough luck. No thanks especially when U-Hauls insurance is paying for it.
