Recommendations for Paint Shop ?

Post by jxm »

Today is a good day... I got my first L300!!

There are a couple of areas where the paint is chipped off, and I was also thinking about having the lower part painted a different color. It's all black right now, but I love the two-tone look! Can anyone recommend a good paint shop? I'm not rich, but I will definitely choose quality over price...

I've had them do great work for a reasonable price. They let me see the steps and didn't shy away from questions.

On the other hand they did a shitty job installing fender flares on my L400; I had to rip everything off and repair the damage myself. Just visualize 2 teenagers with power tools drilling your Delica... :shock:

I always go to Tremclad and foam roller for my paint needs.....Lots of colours paint jobs are around $50.00. No crying if it gets damaged, easy to touch up....

Highly recommend them :-D

So I did end up going to Otto Auto, and I am very happy with the paint job! And I actually WAS gonna have them put my fender flares on too... but this visualization scared me enough not to!
