Hey all, I need some input on something. I want to repaint my 95 black maxima. It has so many scratches on it that you wouldn't believe. Also has quite a few acid rain spots all over the place. What color should I get it repainted, and who do you know does a good job? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, anyone know where to get the clear/red tail lights for a 95-96 maxima since DavidL doesn't do them anymore? Thanks alot!

The color you want depends on how well you want to take care of the car and how much you want to spend on the paint job. I worked at a body shop last summer and black paint jobs need to be sanded more times than any other color and thus cost more. You also have to be extremely careful with black paint because it does show every scratch that is in the paint. Other dark colors are the same(ie:navy, deep emerald green...). White is the color that requires the least amount of attention because it will not show scratches unless they are deep and they dont cost as much to paint.
