About a year and a half ago, I wrecked my Honda. I got her bodywork done promptly and intended to get the paint job done as well, but I developed this phobia: new paint = death by MARTA bus. Weird, I know.
When I got my emissions done this year, I decided it was time to suck it up and get the paint done. The aftermarket fender couldn’t go much longer without being painted. So I head over to the ghetto paint shop that I’d gotten an estimate from a year ago to see if they’d still do the work for $475. They will. Then I stopped at a CarClinix place and they said it’d be $3000… Um. NO. Off I go to the ghetto place.
I knew that going to a cheap ass ghetto car paint place was risky, but I really can’t spend a ton of money on a car that’s worth about $2500, you know?
