pics of my macco paint job after 1 month....

I thought I would post up some pics of a macco paint job after one month. This was their basic paint job which was the base clear coat intergrated with the paint. Paid 700 for it.
I only have one spot that is chiping after a month but its nothin big I touch it up






What do you think?

Wow... Looks good, makes me think twice about getting a Maaco paint job. Where is it chipping at? Did you tape the car off yourself? Or was it $700 in and out the door; then doing everything?

Also: shiny***

looks good...
fix that spot on the bumper or it'll spread since it's on a flex piece.
for $700 it's a pretty good deal.


ford probe ay?

looks so silky and shiny, I could see myself doing a Dukes of Hazzard slide on the hood and slide right off.
You could also make the $700 back by renting your car out to a hair salon so they could use it as a mirror.

Looks like a good deal to me. Any chance you have a ridiculously close-up shot of the paint?
