Joey's quote was $450 on the hood and fender, they are brand new panels sat in the warehouse, now in the garage. Hard to spend ~$500 on a car that is worth $1500.

There's nothing wrong with maaco as long as you do your own prep work first. You aren't going to get the quality or someone like Rick or Joey but sometimes you don't need that. I'll pony up that kind of cash for my baby in the garage every time but my miata is getting Maaco because I don't want to pay more and I don't care if it doesn't have an amazing paint job.

They do indeed do great work, however its not likely they'll do an all over.
I worked at one of the shops for a bit and we always tried to avoid them. Its near impossible to turn a profit on an all over without charging 4-5k
