Ive seen friends cars that have been to maaco's and experienced maaco myself. From what ive heard its all about the maaco you go to and know who it is thats going to paint your car. I got in an accident and took my car in at maacos. Got the $800 paint job. Other than it taking about 2 weeks, the job was done alot better than I expected. I also reccomend choosing the same color, or a similar color to the one previously....if you dont thats where the $800 paintjob shows.
