Looks great - and a reasonable price too! Those mini-lites look fantastic, I would swap my slotted mags for those in a minute, but funds prevent that

My car is a weekender too, has some dings and some very minor rust. $1,400.00 for a decent paint job and fix of dings, etc. is, as Arne says, a bargain! Only issue is that each Maaco, being independent, is different, so I'd expect differing levels of quality.

I thought of going Weasel's route of the High School shop class or Vocation school, but I am too lazy to flesh that out. I better get Maaco!!!

Did you remove all the bumpers, grilles, mouldings, lights, and etc. from your car before doing the painting?

Arne....Where are the pictures.....

Goose, you are going to love Crossville. You will be about 1 hour away from the Maaco, they are the only one in Knoxville. There are are several club members in Crossville, and the local meetings are here in Knoxvile. Here's a link if your interested.

Tomo, as per Bre-240Z.......yes. However I let the glass company handle the front and hatch.

rdefabri....If you like the Panasports check out MSA, they have the Konig Rewinds that look just the Pana's for half the price....16x7 run about $525 I think.

Kudos, Randy, on the new paint and the deal. You've got a beautiful car there. I'd be proud to own it as I'm sure you are. Especially since, you've made the effort and investment.

Thumbs Up... nicely done. That color combo (green/tan) has always been my favorite.

Randy,

Your car looks great! You are making me want to try to keep #331 and restore it back to its original green/tan. Did you get one of the Maaco advertised paint packages like Supreme or Signature? Was your price part of the grand opening special? There is a new Macco in the south Seattle area, but it looks like they only advertise a special on a lower level paint job (the Presidential).

Hey Mike,

Maaco must do the same deals at all their stores, the only "special" was for the lower end paint job. Mine was broken down to include the base/clear...which is the most expensive one they do, and then extra for the sanding, hole repair, and misc dings.

I would only use Maaco for the base/clear....I think you'll have trouble with the lower end paint.

PS.....Arne, the car looks GREAT!! I must have missed the post in body and paint....

Looks like I'm not going to knock Maaco again... That's really good work, and a job nicely done.

With me, I'm moving here in September, and I have an Uncle who owns his own auto-body/repair shop to where I'm moving to in Ohio, and he does really good work. And he drag races as a hobby.

Grats Randy, and I'm happy that your car came out really nice.

Justin, where in Ohio are you moving? It would be nice to have another z enthusiast close to me.

Hey Mezz, I PM'd you.
