BC Where to get a Paint Job

Hey i am not too sure if this is the right forum sub section to be posting this but anyways ...


I want to know if there any good (cheap, if possible around $500 - $1000 ) places to get a clean factory color paint job in The lower mainland (BC, Canada).

The big problem with Maaco is that they are a franchise so the quality (ie time spent on prep) will vary from store to store. Having said that, the Maaco in burnaby (springer avenue) is quite good, my family and I have had some work done by them and have no complaints (even 5 years after some of the work) keep in mind that they do everything from the $600 cheap job to the $7000 show car paint job so the quality does vary but their top two pain jobs (supreme and signature) are good. As an aside, you can also save some money by removing the trim and badges yourself.
