yea i test drove that 85 rx7, paint wasnt that bad for earl sheib!

If you do the prep work yourself then it might turn out ok... usually they dont do TO bad a job of painting, they just do a shitty job of taping off and prep... so it peels off in no time lol

Actually action paint and body on williamson does a pretty good job for a cheap paint job. They just have an overspray problem and for some reason they like painting your muffler black unless you tell them otherwise...
