my 97 gt isnt looking too good lol ive got a key scratch along an entire side, faded clear, and the paint by the wheel wells just looks bad. I know everybody is going to advise against maaco but thats whats gonna happen because its not worth spending a lot on and i just want something that will look better than it does now for another year or two. they said for 600 they would scuff, prime, and paint it with a one year warranty. i dont know too much about prepping a car for paint but im wondering if i prep the car myself would going for like the 350-400 job be any worse? the only reason i dont wanna prep myself is because i get no warranty but it needs more work than i want to pay for lol, i know im getting what i pay for i just need a decent job since im still in high school, any opinions or tips on prepping? thanks
