Cheapest paint job eh?
Go to Canadian Tire, buy sand paper, spray bomb primer and spay bomb whatever colour you want. They've got many colours to choose from! should cost you no more then $80. If you really wanna get ambitious you can buy clear coat in a spray bomb and spray that over the paint. Paint will last at least 1yr.

cheap is not alwaYs best ... hOwever I did get a qUote to get my car pAinted from macco and they did say 3 year warrenty ... so I dunno.. seemed Like the it was to good to be true eh? Like thatS what happens if yoU go to a place that is too good to be true it will screw you over, then you have to get it done again... Rice burner niCe idea with the spray paint I would recommend doing each panel separately that how they did the project 240sx on sportcompactcarweb.com oK?

If you want cheap and better than Macco, go to the Do It Yourself Garage. You do all the prep work yourself and they paint for you. You can even supply your own paint. They have service bays for rent and it costs areound $7 an hour. If you need some body work, Rocco does great work, he restores calssic car for some of his customers. You know your paint job is only as good as how well you prep the car before painting.

I'm a bit iffy about the Maaco paintjobs because I have heard nothing but bad things.
However if ur just trying to do the cheapest then go for, but be careful, sometimes saving up for a better paintjob and spending the extra cash is worth it.
My 2cents
