> I cant understand why someone would paint there car another plain oem color aside from the one thats on there car… Mike said he spent $4950 in labor on my paintjob NOT including materials… People said I should paint my eclipse oem white… If I was going to do that I would have sold mine and just bought a white one!.. Instead of paying $5k+ JUST for paint I could get the entire car AND paint color for the same price… shit maybe even less… MY CONCLUSION, I cant understand why anyone would paint there car a NON crazy coLor if there going to spend the money.

I’m all about keeping it OEM +. Subtle mods, nothing too flashy. I’ve had a couple cars painted and never changed the color on any of them.
