Hey guys I am looking for a decent paint shop around the bay?? I dont want to go to a super cheap shop and have my paint last for a year but I dont have the money to get a 2 thousand dollar paint job either. I am located in Livermore area. Any suggestions guys?? Thanks!!

 

any decent paintjob is going to be worth 2k+. Even if you do all the prep work yourself im guessing it's still going to be expensive.

 

Also looking but I just need a good deal for a place to paint my front lip and trunk

 

Been looking around as well, Also from livermore

 

I hate to say it, but $2000 is a cheap paint job that will fall off in a year

 

Yeah I figured that anything under 5k was going to be a somewhat crappy paint job. Looking to spend around 1k, I dont need fenders or hood painted so I'm hoping that will save me some money.

 

Have you thought about vinyl?

 

Feel free to PM me if you end up wanting to save up for a supreme paint job! I own a local body shop and have worked on a few I-Club member's cars.

 

my first recommendation is
California Reflections
3575 1st St
Ste D
(between Scott St & Gardella Plz)
Livermore, CA 94551
(925) 455-4112
auto body, California Reflections Auto body& paint Livermore, CA Home
ive had kevin do a lot of paint and bodywork on my cars, as well as my parents cars he is not the cheapest but he one of the best and his prices are really reasonable
the second place is
Miracle Auto Painting
8 California Avenue
Pleasanton, CA 94566
(925) 485-9900
i have never used them personally but ive had a few friends that have used them there work looks pretty nice and they have pretty good prices as well

 

Save up for a good paint job.. Removing a crappy paint job costs $$, if you decide for a good paint job down the line...

 

The only way you are going to get that cheap of a paint job is this: 50 Dollar Paint

 

Thanks for the info!! they are all super close to my house too. I actually have had miracle paint two of my old cars in the past. They do excellent work for the money you spend (under 700$). However I have always went to the miracle in Modesto.

 

That turned out actually pretty nice hahah

 

Thanks for the advise. Im going to start saving more now

 

I actually did this on my old Dodge Diesel. It turned out decent. Certainly good enough for an older beater work truck.
