    Well my car was originally frost white, and if I recall correctly frost white accords didnt come with a clear coat anyways. They were painted with single stage paint. My new paint is single stage also, Oh and as for how long it takes.. I droped mine off on a monday and got it back that thursday.

    Few of my friends got theirs painted at the same location, one of them got it back in 3 days, the other it took 2 weeks.

    Really just depends on how busy they are that week

            here is another option that devilblue14 and I are thinking of trying. Both our cars need paint work and mine also needs body work.

            take a look they have a great price but we know nothing of their reputation

              [QUOTE=Accordolictx]I know this guy named David that owns and runs his own paint & body shop called "Image Auto Salon" right next door to Redline performance in Arlington. He has a pretty good reputation out there. He did a damn good job on my car and I have a body kit that needed some fabrication work as well as priming and painting and "he" charged me $800. I don't know too much about paint and body work but, he knows what he is talking about and his work shows it. I got my car painted about a month ago and I have a few rock chips already but, the paint job itself really makes the car look a lot better. He says he will touch it up for me as often as I like for hardly anything. I'll see if I can get the number from my Dad and I'll get at you.

              we may have to work something out with your boy in arlington.....I have two cb7s that need paint.....btw your car looks really good in the pix

              thanks

                Got mine done through David at New Image. They did a awsome job, and don't try to rape ya on the price. I wish I would have had the interior ready for the meet, so other could see how well they did. As for Maaco, the few that I checked out did not work for me. One had major over spray issues and BAD orange peel. The other flat out said that they don't care about how the car looks unless your spending a few G's. I would recommend New Image highly!!

                  Anytime you want me to introduce you to David let me know. He is really cool and I'm pretty sure he will give you a nice deal. Judonoh and I are always shooting back and forth through the Dallas area on the weekends and we don't mind helping out another fellow tuner. Anytime you want to head out there to check out his shop or see his work in person let me know.

                        PM me NAiL05 about the pre- meet once you find a location. I'll meet you there. I need to install my new Koyo radiator before HIN but I have to work Saturday 6AM- 10AM lol.
