    I would say Maaco if you do the prep work, I know some people will disagree. But they did my SE-i and Bloodlusts Coupe and it came out looking very nice.

    If you are painting it the same color again, I would say Maaco, but if you wanted the change the color get it done professionally. And try to get the best option that Maaco has at the time, like 3 stage paint. *EDITED*
