jus like a tattoo, your better off going down there and finding out, its not easy or accurate to give a price quote over pics or hear say, plus not everyone's car has the same amount of work as an other.

Sorry Isaac, we don't really do complete paint jobs, and even more so color changes. We primarily do insurance claims, however we do a good amount of customer pay work as well. In case you were wondering, I've written a few estimates for complete paint jobs and none of them have ever been less that $5k. It's not cheap.....at least to do it right and to do it well.

Isaac, if you have any questions I'll be at the shop on Monday if you'd like to call or email me. However I leave for a work trip on Tuesday and will be gone for 2 weeks. I normally prefer to take care of the I-Club guys myself, so if not, call me when I get back to work on the 28th.

We're currently scheduling about 3 weeks out........the best, not sure about that part though. I'd like to think we do a good job and provide great customer service. But, I will be the first to admit that we're far from perfect and constantly trying to improve.

Aiea collision. Prepare for wait time though, as they too do insurance and rental car jobs as priority first. But they do a great job.

Got my te's painted at aiea collision lol. BUT I got hooked up through a friend that was also getting his wheels painted at the same time, they also repainted his whole car and fit his kit ect. ect. so he was a loyal customer of theirs already. Idk if they do small jobs like that for just anyone off the street but doesn't hurt to call them and ask.
