    For three hundred dollars it came out beautifully. Great colour and someone can get the paint corrected if they choose. For what your asking there should be a good margin for the next owner to make it what they want. The heavy lifting has been done.

    A number of years ago I had a 1977 BMW 320i rebuilt which included a $500 paint job from maaco in corpus Christi Texas. It came out beautifully, I had absolutely no complaints with what the maaco shop gave me for $500. I'd use them again for sure. Your BMW looks awesome by the way.

    Long, LONG ago, before my military days while I was still in high school, I worked at a Maaco Auto Painting in Hazel Park Michigan. You would not believe what people expected from even their cheapest paint job. They would expect their beaten down beaten up wrecks without a straight piece of sheet metal on them anywhere, to run, drive and look as if they just came off a Dealership Floor. By the way, that BMW looks great!

    Years ago my dad and I used Maaco on an old black '89 Towncar which had potential, a nice cloth top and dirty but very nice black leather, but we didn't wanna spend a fortune on it, was supposed to be a car to flip. They sprayed it even w/ black metallic for around $800 I believe, applied a nice white pinstripe, left a lot of fine orange peel, which we were OK with, we just didn't want a bunch of runs. Back then, my dad and I did about 4 cars a year as a hobby. We knew about the weak hardener, when we got it back, we left it in the back yard and let it bake in the sun. I washed it w/ the special soap they gave us and brought it inside, did the paint correction myself. It turned out to be one of the prettiest cars we ever had. Wound up sorting the car completely, and dad decided to sell his '84 Towncar (complete creampuff w/ 68k miles on it) and keep the '89. I detailed the interior, it was perfect. Wound up driving that car on my senior prom. He finally traded it on a beautiful dark blue '90 Towncar that needed some mechanical work at a dealer, almost even up trade. But that was a very good Maaco success story, I would do it again with that same expectation.

    People don't understand how much paint cost by itself as it's very expensive today so a $300 paint job is a loss for most shops . If I was going to paint that car it would have to be stripped down because of the lacquer primer will lift the paint up and 3 bills for tape and sandpaper plus my paint and clear coat ect.. you're looking at a $1000 bucks to spray it in the backyard if you want a perfect job in the booth 5 grand to paint this little car . Lucky is the man !! I been watching his videos and he flips these cars quick with the new paint so why wouldn't you do it this way it fast ,clean , and saves time . If Mike did this car like the Harley Davidson truck it would be a lot more as well . You get what you pay for folks so if you want a cheap paint job that's what you get !! You can prep the car and pull all the side mouldings and lights ,door handles ect... And it will come out better but you have to put in the time . Anyways great paint job for the money Randy 👍

    I think you're doing really good. I enjoy the content you put out. I chuckled a bit when you mentioned mud in the wheels. I instantly thought about the movie My Cousin Vinny. Haha.

    Thanks Randy, great content as always. Take care of yourself and don’t burn yourself out. The paint is eye catching. May cut the number of buyers interested, but get the right buyer and the paint job will last as long as the car. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    You should have seen repair bills for wrecked BMWs back in the late 00s 20-25k to repair a front end collision. I can't imagine what they are getting now.

    For $300 that came out beautiful. To compliment that incredible paint you should black out all the trim, and look into getting black rims.

    Maaco is great for painting especially if no prep is needed or its already done. But if you have them do the bodywork they will upcharge you a lottt IMO

    I like the orange, does go with the loud exhaust. You better have fixed the brakes, no more warped roters! It's come back from the grave
