OK, Let's try this a different way..

I have a Granada Black Metallic Clearcoat NH-503P '93 Acura Integra GS 3 door with minor body work and paint needed.
I would like the car repainted the same color
or
'00 Acura Type-R Starlight Black Pearl Clearcoat NH-592P
or
'00 Honda Civic Si Flamenco Black Pri Metallic Clearcoat NH-592P
or
'04 Subaru Impreza Midnight Black Pri Metallic 08V or Java Black Metallic Clearcoat 18L Or any Other Liquid metallic Black you can come up with.
I do not need the motor bay or door jams redone, But would love to have them at least blended so the paint looks close to stock.

I have the money as we speak to get this done and would love to get started on it right away.

The car needs to be done by the second week of January '08 worst case and I would be greatly appreciative if you could get the car done within one week and two weekends (9 days total)

I use this car as a Daily Driver but can use a different vehicle for a total of two weeks tops.

I really don't want you to post your prices here, But if you could come up with a best case and worst case price, Then PM them to me along with your phone number and any other contact info needed, That would be Great!!!

If you can recommend someone to do the work for me, Please post all of their info and if I end up going with them, I'll hit you up with Rep, Trader Ratings and I'll treat you out to lunch and beer or something.

I had two separate people that said they were going to get the job done back in November ($950 and $1500 max), But since then it's a hassle to get a hold of them :( and they have other things going on in their life, No time for little ole' Me.

This is the vehicle you'll be working with.

This is an Honest and straight forward business post, I'm very easy to deal with and want to be your customer.
You want my business and I want to give it to you, But I'm not looking to spend anything like $3k or more

This is a 14 y/o vehicle and I'm not looking to spend a fortune on a DD vehicle, But at the same time I don't want a Macco job either.
I plan on keeping this car for a couple years and have full intention to keep the paint kept up, As I detail vehicles on the side.
So you can figure I don't want a Water Based or Clear added into the paint kinda job.
At least 2-3 base and 2-3 clear coats.
I have no problem paying you and advertising your business for everyone to see.

Start leaving your info and prices, I'll get back to you ASAP!!!

Thanks, -Jeff


Hell, I'll even help you strip the car, sand, and any other job your willing to show me how to do to make this job as easy as possible.

There is a sticky of all the shops that can do this work. PM some one on the list and start that way.

Do you want all the jambs, interior, and engine bay painted if you change the color?

Yeah, I know all about the Sticky List, But that gets me no where.
See, There are people in here that don't show their face for risk of being criticized on their skills since they are willing to offer the same time and and quality work for a little bit less..... Especially during the Holidays :D

As for this post,............It worked!!!, I have a scheduled time to drop off my car, The guy that's doing the job is very very good, And the price is exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks Doug!!!!, Talk to you tomorrow and thanks for meeting up with me today.

Everyone else that PMed me yesterday and Today, Thanks for taking the time and the estimates.

The Price was unbelievably low for the slew of labor and materials put into my car.

If your looking for Very Fairly Priced Paint & Body work done to your car/truck/Bike/Etc., Contact Grady (screen-name " Oldschool98 " .... http://www.tamparacing.com/forums/member.php?u=19156 ...) via PM and all details can be worked out between you 2.

Grady is extremely down to earth and has very very good business ethics.
With more then 15+ years experience under his belt, I wouldn't ever think twice having him do all of my Paint and Body work from now on..

Tell him Jeff sent you in the PM ;)
