Update : Maaco paint and Toyo Open Country A/T II
P265/75R16 tires. I found the sweet spot for Clearance vs MPG and looking right vs suspension parts dying prematurely.

Looks awful nice. That's a Maaco job ehhh. Looks great, have you noticed any flaws? I've heard mostly bad about them...honestly.

It all depends on the shop (and the skill of the employees). There was one back in Ohio that turned out some great paint jobs.

Of course, It's been talked about before, Maaco just being a stepping stone in that business. You never know what your going to get in most cases. From the picture, his looks great.

I used Yelp to find a good shop. Kearny Mesa Maaco and I got the urethane (mixed in clearcoat) 3 year warranty. I am extremely pleased.

I lost some pics in a crash but there might be one on my camera. It was down to metal on the hood from sun bleaching in FL.
