Satin Black paintjob in jacksonville

First and foremost, I am trying to help a friend of mine who is wanting to have a full body paintjob on his Mercedes C230 Kompressor. He is going through a process of modifying his car.

Right now, he is taking things slowly and trying to do his homework about this stuff. So, he is interested in this type of paintjob.

can anyone kindly point me to a reputable paint shop around here in Jacksonville that do this type of job?

He is trying to find quotes. I am trying to get some connections for him.

I really appreciate if you help me out give him some information and proper directions to take.

Thanks!

ps: for those who may not be familiar with this paintjob, here are some pics:

A) That car is friggin sick!!!
B) Is this the same thing as matte black? Loos like it
C) I think they make a wrap that can achieve that look

However, I dont know of a place that does either. Good luck

i think matte black is bit different ..but this car is satin black because in one of the forum i read mentioned that this car is satin black..

my friend is not interested in a wrap (the wrap could be more expensive? )

but thanks

anyone, please do not go off-topic and hope we can strictly stick with the topic, i really appreciate any advice or suggestions.

Yep, thats him. Let Stefan know I sent you. He's a little more than other bodyshops, but he's a perfectionist.


If you need powdercoating, he'll probably refer you to Jacksonville Powder Coating which is off cassat and Roselle. Or if you're looking for somewhere closer there is East Coast Powder Coating off beach and Leon. I want to say I was quoted anywhere between $250-$350 for coupe 19s depending on the type of powder/color.

You can get a wrap for about 1500-2000 and paint for about 4k. I definaly say go the wrap route incase you want to remove it later.
