nope that maaco brite white, not the best job, but for $250 you can't beat it. I bought the car for $400, spent $65 in parts to fix the brakes. So not bad huh?

Man, thats the air dam and spoiler I am looking for!!
Where'd ya get it, if I may ask?
Also, am I correct in assuming that the maaco job over my existing oxidized paint isn't a good idea?
Oh yeah, BEAUTIFUL CAR!

Yeah...What kind of prep work did they do on the car first? Or did they just paint it since the car was already primered? What color is the engine bay, inside the doors, etc? I really want to get my car re-painted, but Im still doing research on where to get it done. My car is currently white, and I want to "freshen up" the white again...Anyone know the best way to do this? Im only worried about the main body panels on the ouside mostly.

Hey guys thanks for all the compliments. Here's what I can tell you. The car was originally red, the guy I bought it from sanded the car did some bodywork, then primered and wetsanded the whole car. So maaco just did a light wetsand and then painted it. It's not the greatest job, but for $250 it's great.
I have no clue what air dam, or wing that is, I got the car with it. and finally, no that is not a racing beat muffler, it's a stock muffler that I would estimate is maybe a year old, so I put some ghetto autozone chrome tips on it
