Hi guys, a few of you know me from all the radom stuff I have done to my car. Well it is time for it to finally get painted. I live in Needham, close to Boston. I am looking for a nice custom shop to paint my car. I have only found one and they quoted me something like 5 grand to paint it plain old artic white. Is this about right? I was thinking more like 4 grand or even less. Granted they did say they assemble the car, make it all fit just right, paint all parts seperatly, then put back togeather. Real professional like. But 5 grand is a bit high. Please advise. Thanks.

Talk to chicken's customs in Worcester- it's worth the drive (only an hour).
Check this forum, the guys from the shop post there and everyone there knows the shop.

Nice I love the good feedback. Makes me feel like I am not gonna be wasting my $.

Oh cool. Another needham person. Small world. Anyways, how are they there? Good? Great... I have asked around at collition centers before and had bad luck. Can we meet up sometime and you can show some work they have done to your car? I would love to stay local if at all possible. Thanks.

By the way, how old are you redfirebirdman8?

 

i'm 16 1/2 and i could meet up no problem, i have today off, other wise i work at roche brothers and you could see the car there the rest of the week

Ok, well I got stuff to do afterwork today, but maybe tomorrow or something. I am in and around town all the time. I will swing by Roches tomorrow or the next day...if I remember. If not, we can meet up at my house sometime. I used to have guys from this site come over on Saturdays so that we could talk about our cars. Once my car is done I plan to put all my effort into making a real nice/fun car club. Anyways, I will try to swing by Roches... What has the collition center worked on, on your car? So I know what to look at.
