    I have been trying to find semi local shops that do nice quality paint jobs. I figure some of you may know some good places. My budget is $3000 or less. I would prefer to pay a lot less, but you cant really get good and cheap when it comes to a paint job. I'm just going with black again and it would be a full respray, without removing the interior. Hopefully I can line one up soon so that once my wheels are fitted and the bay is done, the car can go off for paint;)

        I know he does. That would be Junior. His work lately hasn't been the greatest I'm told. Plus he was supposed to paint my car last year, but stopped talking to me once he changed his price.

              Todd Gillette at Gillette Auto Body in Waukesha does good work.  Hes the auto body instructor at WCTC so he does know what hes doing.  His shop did some body stuff on my evo and it looked amazing.

                  Tom's Auto Body in Delafield does excellent work. I know one of their painters. They do really nice custom work too. Might be a little pricey, but like you said you get what you pay for.

                          I'm looking to get a wheel powder coated black myself, I know of a place in Elkhorn, but it's just too far.

                              Thanks Stew, but I scrapped my idea of painted wheels.
