| - I brought my wife's 14-year-old Jaguar to this shop after seeing their ad on Craig's List. I spoke with Tim, the owner, and he recommended doing just the top surfaces as the sides were still in very good shape. I was prepared to do the whole car, but Tim discouraged spending extra money on it.
Estimates at other shops in my area (NW Valley)ranged from $2,500 to $3,200 to do the top surfaces. Tim quoted $650. I had him also paint the front and take out some dents and the total came to $800. I had been prepared to spend around $1,400 for a fairly crappy job that would allow us to drive the car for a couple more years.
Long story short, the car came out fantastic - a perfect color match between the painted and original paint panels. I might add this is a silver car, one of the most difficult to match. Even though a lot (not all) trim and windows were taped-off, you could never tell, it was done perfectly.
If I had paid $3,000 for this job elsewhere I would have been plenty satisfied. The car was done on-time and on-budget. The facility was immaculate and Tim was extremely friendly and great to work with. I highly recommend Auto Painting Plus, and will use them again if needed, even though they're almost 60 miles from my home.
