Message	Look, me and milo can both spend like $1500-1800 on a paint job and you guys can spend about $4000 and both of our front fascia's and hoods will have paint chips from rocks and what not after a year, same with your guys' paint jobs. You pay more for detail, for $1500 and a little of your elbow grease, you can get great detail and great paint. I would never ever fathom spending $4k on a paint job, think about all the mods you could get with that money, ecu, injectors, turbos, no way man. Opportunity cost demands TD05's at that price, if you got TD05's, then paint your car with $4k.
