Car gettin repainted.
i've had mixed results with them. my bumper came out looking really good... but they didn't do other things as discussed. you have to be extremely particular and clear, otherwise it won't get done the way you expect it. everything needs to be in writing to protect yourself.
i also would NOT have opted for spot painting. regardless of whether they clear it or not, how could newer paint not look different than older paint right next to each other? it's pretty basic.

^^^you gotta check out the spot repair that williams autobody did after international autobody cracked my fender(s) paint during the roll. it actually looks pretty damn good.
Went to the shop on sat and they were about to spray the car, suppose to pick it up on tues after it gets detailed by phil. hoping for the best, will let you guys know how it turned out. Btw, this forum is evil, i started to look at getting some aftermarket rims, this forum gives me the itch to UPGRAAADE!!!!




car actually would look pretty damn good with a white racing stripe down the side
CF roof, hood, black sides except for a white stripe along the side, similar to the second pic right above the 2 posts above this post..

ok so i got my car back last wk. Im very happy with the work that was done. Color match was dead on. Johnny was really cool about everything. Nothing rattles, everything was put back on correctly. Check out the pics. Another satisfied customer from International Autobody






well i went through insurance so paid my ded of $500...and the bill to the insurance came out to about $2100...so ~$2600 total.
The orange peel is not that bad. i would say that the stock paint has about a 1% less of an orange peel effect? Its really hard to tell the difference unless you stare at it from certain angles with certain lighting to tell that theres a diff b/w the two sides. **** ppl like us might be able to tell but hardly. I would say that the match is as good as it can get w/out going to a special shop to buffer/polish out more of the orange peel. Not too sure how true that is though.
If anyone wants to look at the paint job before you go in to have your car done, let me know.
