Paint Shop for e36

Canon8mm60D · 09-22-2013, 12:31 PM

I am looking for a good paint job that is relatively inexpensive. That means martino autoconcepts is off the list. I would prefer a shop on long island.

This is for an e36 m3 that I may only keep for a couple years.

Thanks fellas......

Probably too far away but if for some reason you're near Port Chester, NY i'd recommend Frank's Auto Body. He painted both of my msport bumpers and did an awesome job. The nice thing about him which I don't think most places do is he mixes the color based on the code first, then bring it out to the actual car and adjusts it slightly so it's a perfect match. Also inexpensive. Painting my front and rear bumper cost me $500

Having seen your bumpers I can vouch that Frank's work does look great and $500 is CHEAP.

OP, good work isn't cheap so not sure what your exact budget is but id be looking at atleast 2500-3000 and probably even more if its a full color change.

Ive heard impressive autowerk in maspeth doesnt great work and they used to be vendors on here so maybe theyre pricing is reasonable.

I would recommend Motorcepts. Pm me your budget and we can take it from there. My brother had some paint work done on his e93 there a couple weeks ago and it came out exceptional. If you want to take a look at it lmk.....
