    if you getting the car for 400 Maaco is fine. Personally I would NEVER pay more for a paint job than my car is worth.

    if you really dgaf, then go for it
    but if you dgaf, then no. and if you have nice car, no.
    when you get the bumper painted, especially at maaco, you're gonna be able to see the difference between the rest of the car and the bumper
    and the quality isn't good either.

    You need to put a check, with a check, with a check stack up on your grip get your ? sprayed wet. See most of these lil paints jobs will do but if it aint candy then your ride aint true.
