I just had my Vert painted.

Today I spent some time cleaning up the rims.

Unbelievably, I love my car more than I did before.

That looks really good, where did you get the job done and how much did it cost?

I second the good looking job. By the way, what part of Virginia are you in? I used to live outside of Roanoke up until last year.

It was $600 and done by a body shop in Stafford, VA.

I live in Arlington, VA.

It was so faded out before, it's nice to see it shine.

$600 is a pretty damn decent deal!

no kidding, i had to pay 1200 for a job on my 87 a few years ago...guess ill hold out for cheaper prices when i got to get my 91 vert and 91 coupe painted

wow that is cheap.. i work at a body shop and a full car would cost at least 2 grand... if its only 600$ then i would make sure you wash and wax it frequently... especially a wax.. from what i know a lot of cheaper paint jobs do not last because they only put one coat of clear on the paint and when it fades off there goes your paint job.. not saying thats you or anything but just make sure you keep it waxed for extra protection... nice car though

Looks killer. Nice job.

awesome job. looks great. reminds me of the vert my friend use to have

Nice Vert! And even nicer to see some VA vert representation - I see several around Richmond, but none of them are enthuiaiast.

It's weird though for me. Ever since I added the coupe wing, I look at every Vert like it it imcomplete for some reason

:shrug:

Very nice...I paid double that for the job on my car, and I still feel like I got a great deal.

$600 is a realllly good deal, nice car.

Paint looks really good, especially for only $600. But, it looks like they oversprayed on your muffler cans.

That sucks because it looks like you have a nice RB setup

croffeyc

Correct on the overspray. The RB Catback is my only mod to date (other than replacing the stock stereo). My next step is to clean it off and getting them shiny again.

Since the Racing Beat stuff is stainless steel, do you all think that a Brillo pad would do the trick?

How about a little paint thinner?
