thanks guys, not too shabby for maaco huh? and a couple people have mentioned the pinstripe. in person, it's what makes the car. it takes it from a simple black stripe to something with a little custom touch. it must be the pictures and the lack of perspective in them cuz the pinstripe looks badass in person.

A pin stipe is a must!! IMO i'm just refering to extra one (inside opening of the scoop). just never seen it done like that...but it still looks good

Awesome, Maaco did this? Good to know, cuz i need to have my driver door painted. I bumped my garage as i was pulling in one night and it has a few scratches on it. Wanted to get it fixed asap, but didn't wanna pay out the rear. Looks good, man.

yes it was maaco, but be advised that very few maaco's actually do a good job. also, i know the guy and he always helps me out with paint work. i prob wouldn't reccomend maaco unless your gonna drive to mass.
