Default If anyone needs a hook up for paint or body work

Its kinda out of the way but well worth the drive
Its in Southern Maryland... Hollywood, MD
Mike' Custom and Paint (301) 373-7855
If you tell them you were refered by me, (Hans) you will get a price that cannot be beat

Bring any estimate and it will be lower by the hundred-hundreds

i had my front bumper painted for 150, side skirts for 100 (as long as there is no cutting, etc)

He owns his own business and does all the work himself, he can do spray paint art too!


not meaning to advertise, its just that i had great experiences with that shop

I need a front bumper and spoiler painted and installed. I know how big of a hike it is to Hollywood, MD so I have to ask. I don't mind bringing the car that far for work, but what about an estimate?

have your car estimated first by a decent body shop, then bring that estimate to hollywood, ca and he will knock off a few hundred dollars.. or atleast will be cheaper than what mostly all shops charge

gcoupeturbo, are you in Southern Maryland?

My dad needs to have an oem spoiler put on his Z. It's already painted. We bought it used though, so we dont have the template or anything.

Im not sure if your familiar with the area, but D&G Customs wants $80 to install and Georges Auto wants $140. Im not sure if these prices are too high or low.

We also have two small dents in my moms Altima that could be fixed.

We'll go check them out. Thanks for the info!

What about a complete custom paint?
If I do anything to paint the car, I am starting all over again...
Could he do a ballpark figure for a complete respray...or does he just do repair/spot work?

Sounds good.

Much like Alberto, my car is ragged. Baltimore city and I-83 seem to be covered in pebbles all the time.

he definitely will
i suggest seeing his previous work in his photo album.. and just talk to him, i've seen some of the old antique, classic american cars that he had restored.. he's pretty good and very fair for the price/ like i said, bring an estimate to him and he would most likely save u hundreds of dollars.. ..

btw, i've seen his custom paint jobs and paint art too.. check him out. i gotta go there to repaint too.

How much do you think he'd charge to paint the whole 1986 Corolla into 2 tones(black and white)? I have friends here that can do all the prep work (buffing the existing paint, fix rust, etc). All I'm looking for is for a shop to do the paint job (primer, paint, clearcoat). I tried giving him a call a few times, but nobody ever picks up. I guess he's busy since it's a one man shop. I can't really just stop by since the shop is like 2 hours away.
