I've heard their paint jobs are a joke.

I wouldn't go with maaco if I were you. They are over priced and do ****ty work. A buddy of mine used to work for them and they flat out rip people off. My father, a long time ago, took his 68 Mustang there and they added dents and **** that weren't even there to begin with, it was a nightmare! One word, SHADY. DON'T DO IT!

What about the dealership? Would they do a decent job for the money?
