I'm hoping someone out there can help me. I'm fairly new to the site and I'm looking for someone in the West San Jose/Campbell area that does good paint prep & paint for a fair price. I'd like to get 74 914 done very soon.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Jason |

Yeoman is the best in your area. He does 914s all the time and so he knows them well.

Do you have a budget?
I second Yeoman in Redwood City for quality work. He has painted many 914's including mine. If you are set on a San Jose job, another member "Trevorg7" used Councours Autobody: Derick 408-377-7997. It took longer than promised but he was pleased with the results. I have also used a painter in Salinas who is cheaper than Bay Area rates. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) |

I you are looking for something cheap, I have had good luck with Maaco in Palo Alto. Not up to the quality standards of Yeaman's, but quite good if you want to spend less than $1,000. What I have done in the past is get one of their coupons for $300 off a $600 paint job, then have them do $300 - $400 additional prep work. Works out to $600 to $700 and still will look good after 5 or 6 years. Not sure about other Maaco shops. They are all independently owned. So make sure you find a good one.

It looks like everyone replied with the same person in mind. I haven't established a budget yet. I'm not looking for anything fancy, just a good clean job. Any ideas on the price range I'll be looking at if I have this guy do the work? P.S. Also wanted to thank all for welcoming me to 914World |

Give him a call. I'm sure he'll have a price off the top of his head.
