Finally got my baby back from Maaco!! (with new pics)

[FeistyFesti]

Last night I went to pick up my freshly painted Festy and I really love the color and paint job. They went above and beyond because they even vacuumed and Armor All'd the interior. I hope I'm the first one with a sublime metallic Festy in the country. I can't wait to drive around town!! I'll take much better pics this weekend or later on today.

The first picture is the before and then the after:

wow that looks really good, i was worried when you said "maaco" before, but it turned out really well!!

You should have removed all the molding, or put on the piece you're missing on the passenger side. Looks cool otherwise

[skeeters_keeper]

neat color!

but, someone got a TON of over spray on your rad, lol. Did you take it to them taped up, or did they remove the lights/mask off the molding? Because most of that looks pretty good for maaco!

don't know if i've seen a festiva this lime green color.. looks like they did a decent job!

[FeistyFesti]

Better pics of car

Sorry to hog up the forum but I couldn't figure out how to edit my original pics. I took some better pics in the sunlight. About the missing molding, he said when I find a replacement, just bring it in and they'll shoot it. They were super nice and professional.

Yeah, theres a lot of overspray on condenser and drier but I'm not too worried about it.

Lime green to the rescue! Looks sweet.

When I first turned it on, I thought I hated the color, but now that I keep looking, it starting to kinda grow on me!

It was $498 drive out.

not bad.. did they remove any exterior trim and/or windows?

now you need a dark tint job :headbang:

No, I don't think so, and there's a spot on the rear bumper that was pretty scuffed up and rough, that they just painted over, but I'm extremely happy, it looks a lot newer than I expected. Yeah, I might just try the home tinting job, it'd be a nice skill to learn.

Looks like it came out good. Glad you're happy.

I'm going to give roller painting a shot
