Max is back - And I'm very happy with the paint match!

I picked him up this morning. The body work my brother did was great. Sherwin Williams did an amazing job matching my paint. I can't find a paint line or blend anywhere. The paint flows like it came from the factory. Even in direct sun light.

The best was the cost - $0.00 Nice to have family in the business.:-) All said and done I made a few hundred from the whole ordeal. I'll get my brother something for his new business with it.

It was a rough week to be without Max, the truck I had didn't have A/C and it was up near 100 every day this week in NJ. It was so nice to drive him home today, made me Enjoy The Ride all over again.

Congrats man...I know the feeling. Once I got my car back from the body shop after getting rear-ended, it was such a wonderful ride. Body work is the best because there is a noticable cosmetic difference. I'm just cleaning, polishing and waxing my car for the first time, and so far the front and rear bumpers are looking like pieces of black glass. Enjoy!

Good to hear it matches perfectly. I don't see what you could get him though... maybe sticker of the bodyshop that he could put on every car that goes though? Or maybe just a full decal package for your car so that you're a mobile billboard for his shop?

its nice to have a hook up.

More like 15hp. So it's good for both you and your brother. And trust me if I lived up there it would be the only place I would go. But the fact is I don't.

He'll quote you on what you need refinished or repaired. For anybody from this board, I will personally work with him on your cars. You have to contact him for quotes. I'll make sure he takes care of Maxima.org members. His shop info is up in this thread already.

hahah, not Really Cyrus

I hear Adding the GT-R Emblems Add at least 10HP because of the actual Shape of the Sticker itself. When you drive, the wind passes through the sticker and kinda bounces around towards the back of it giving you the slightest push. So therefore, your stock 190HP maxima with GTR emblems, brings it to 200HP!!!!

NOW RIDE ON!


HAHAH, god I make myself laugh sometimes, hahahah

My guess is around 500 bucks. You really need to contact him, don't "quote" me on prices.
