    I mean they do ok work, just not that great. But I've seen some maaco jobs that were't that bad honestly.

    you can look around places in your town... there is a place about 20 miles from here that beats maaco to pieces... $389 for a repaint (same color), $600 for a full color change, jambs, everything... it takes them over a week, but they do some of the most killer work for that price you'd ever see
