| Just cause I don't know what a 180 is doesn't mean I don't know how to paint and do body work. I am a ticketed automotive tech and I have been doing it for 8 years. I have tons of pictures of work I have done. And I'm not giving out where I work during the day cause I don't need people showing up there. This is side work and goes nowhere near where I work during the day ... I have cheap prices and I don't NEED the extra money. So I don't deal with young punks who think they know more then me about body work and paint ... If your not sure, go somewhere else, I could care less ... I won't except a job if I know the person is just gonna be a headache. So for the rest of you, if u want a professional paint job or need help with anything, for less than half the price of any shop than feel free to message me. I have tons of pictures u can see, but pictures don't do justice to what it would look like in person so u could even come by and see what I'm working on now. |

| I revised my post, but what I meany by poor is that everyone wants a 5000 dollar paint job for free it seems. My prices are less than half a shop would charge but the same quality, considering I have been doing it for 8 years and work at one of the most well known body shops in town. I have painted anything from rusted out 86 civics to one of the edmonton grand prix pace cars... |

I PM'ed you |

| Wow they really need to get a site like this going for adults only who are serious about cars, not deadbeats who have nothing better to do then sit on this site just to say smart ass things. I guess I'm a shitty painter and don't know what I'm doing because I don't know what a guy is talking about when he says "180", I don't usually work on piles of junk and considering I'm not a fan of nissan why would I? Close the thread all u want, the kids on this site are ridiculous anyways. Ill post pics of my work tonight and you guys can be the judge, if u want a good paint job for cheap, message me, only if ur serious. Don't go messaging me 20 times and then tell me u will call me in a month when u get paid. |

Dude, 180 or 240 or any of those idiotic engine/vin codes that people use mean nothing unless you actually care about them. (Including FD, yes I know...)
He's giving a good deal on a paintjob, leave the man alone and leave the trivia shit to the stick on/slap on parts kids ok? |

ya but this is an automotive enthusiast forum, doesn't matter what you drive or want to drive, we're all here for the same reason. If you don't know about something just ask and someone will point you in the right direction (given they are not a douche bag with a civic that dreams of vtec, and thinks his car could beat a spaceshuttle to the moon). Everyone on this site needs to chill out, we are in a club TOGETHER. The guy is offering us deals and he is made fun of because he didnt know what a 180 was???????!!!! well excuse me, but last time i checked BEGGERS CAN'T BE CHOOSERS!
:drama: |
|
|
| pepper |
| Wtf?! No one cares what u drive, or what the next guy drives, its ur attitude about my work because I didn't know what a 180 is that was the problem, u were trying to discredit my work, like u said a car is a car and a job is a job... |
|

| ron1 |
ok ladies fuckin' relax.........................
i had work done by this guy and it's good and i can vouch for him
so fuckin' chill!!!!!!!!!!!
you want a deal
here it is
if ya don't than throw your cash to a shop so they can rip ya!!!! |

You are a stick on kid with stick on parts on your ricer car. You let other people tell you what's cool and what's not. You have no life or opinions of your own. You're a useless piece of flesh, but in your own mind you're the drifto kingo.
Oh, I was being sarcastic. |

| Ok I have an idea, if u want work done or have questions about getting jobs or have comments about my work then go ahead and post, and let's leave the immature bickering out of this thread from now on. Thanks, oh and is there a thread where you can go and bitch? If so go there if need be. But I still thank the poeple who are on my side, its good to know there are some decent people in here. |

Hey guys, I just finished getting some pieces painted by Pepper. He's a really good guy to deal with, has good prices and does really good work. And very fast, too. Geez, I handed him an unfinished fender and an SUV bumper and he had them done in 24 hours!! I figured it was going to be a week or two before I saw them again.
So, Pepper, two thumbs up! I'll be calling you this winter for the paintjob on the racecar.
And email me your email address, so I can send you pictures of the BMW stuff I need. My email address is rexxrally (at) gmail (dot) com. Thanks! |

Not good to hear!
Unfortunately at 1000.00 a paint job, you get what you pay for.
Materials on a complete for me are well over 1000.00 and thats to do it right.!!
No offence to this guy but I am very very curious how you make it by on a 1000.00 paintjob.
Starting at $$$$ I know, but how. |

| yeah i was the one with the prelude he fucked over, i rode with no bumper for months and him telling me it was fixed and at a friends house, when i finally recieved the bumper back from him nothing had been done to it and i was out 600 dollars because he told me he was getting a body kit i requested but they had sent the wrong one and he was waiting to recieve it still, this guy will just scam u for your money buyer beware, pay the extra money and get it done properly, u dont want to go through the headaches of this trust me, and still to this day i have not seen m money, when i threatened to go to the police he said go ahead and take me to small claims court, clearly a man of his word. |

Good materials are expensive. But you can get cheap stuff like that pre-mixed Dupont which is only $100/gallon. It will look shiny for about 1-2 years and then dull out.
Figure about $50-100 for shop materials (paper, filler, tape etc) and you're looking at a decent profit for a decent paintjob.
Hopefully no one was stupid enough to believe a 1K paintjob is going to be 'good'. |

my tremclad hood looked pretty good for costing me under $50. just the polisher that cost alot cause i was too lazy to sand it by hand.
so how would a place like maaco profit from a $500 spray job then? or even then $1000 'top of the line' paint jobs? even using the cheapest paint, and the cheapest materials possible, they still have to pay workers and overhead. |
