bottom line good body work/paint and the word CHEAP is NOT in the same category.

generic bodywork and "scuff and shoot" - might as well and go to Econo Bake or some shit joint like that.

i have several friends that are in the body work industry. I myself, used to manage a bodyshop. for "decent" bodywork with minimal "bondo" and a decent 2 stage paintjob, be prepared to drop at least 1500 bux MINIMUM and that would be a steal.

I cant wait to finish my s13 with everything done out of metal for the widebody and p/u truck conversion, it will be the straightest bodywork for sure. That's why it's taking months to do it right and when it's all done, the Value of the paint and bodywork will exceed 10K. But that's me, I alwasy try to do everything right the 1st time that way everytime i walk by it, I dont regret it.

Jim's Body shop in seminole, wrexx n effects(or whatever their name is now), XS customs(or whatever) - all of these places SUCK when it comes to quality. But if all you want it for the car to " appear " straight and match, then go to one of these places or Econo BAKE style places. But, remember, watered down generic paint materials and a skimpy clear coat with orange peel or warpy doors and panels is what awaits you, and still it would be over a G.

my 2 cents since I'me been in the industry and know many people currently in it.
