That's 4 customers there! I'm sure we could bargain for some sick deal. Or at least like a big % off type of discount per each car if we all go to the same shop.

I have a company that is looking to get into the custom car business, they are a full service body shop, collision, repair, custom work, fiberglass, paint, etc.

I'm sure they would hook us up with a good deal if they had several cars to paint

That's because BASE tears your whole car down and sprays the individual pieces for best coverage. At least that's how Chris explained it to me. I figure if someone quotes me a price that seems too low it's either because I know them and it's a hookup or they do really crappy work...

Sounds good man. Lets connect everyone together. I could easily gather up a few more cars that are interested in some custom work. Say if we have 6, 7 jobs for the shop, see what deal they could offer us. I think the best way is for them to do a regular quote on each job then apply a sick % discount to each job? It's one hell of a way for them to promote their shop if all the jobs come out right. Not to mention some pretty good initial pot of money made from the "aftermarket business".
