I’ve been looking for an affordable one-day paint shop since I got my 240 last year. I need a paint job but I don’t know where to get the hook-up. Can someone give me some helpful info to find that perfect paint shop?  
Thanks

You want cheap, fast and good? Affordability and quality don’t exactly go hand in hand…what’s your budget?

You could try Athens Auto Body on Ontario Street. They are downtown near Queen & Parliament. Pretty good pricing and decent quality.

Maybe if you had 1/2 a brain in your head you would realize that he is not looking for a perfect paintjob, thats never going to fade/be amazing he is looking for a paintshop that is a “Perfect fit” to his current needs. IE 1day and cheap and realiable. Maybe you first need an understanding of the english language before you are allowed to post in it.

paint itself costs a arm and leg… labour(in canada) to sand down ur car costs another arm and leg… if ur car is already wet sanded down and primered… then $850 is possible
