Best Place To Get Car Repainted...
#1
Hey guys,

I have a '01 Black ZX3 and i've got some rust thats starting here and there, its barely noticeable (bottom of the driver side door and small amount on the back hatch on the inside rim)

I've been thinking about it for a while and wondering if either its worth to get it sandblasted hardcore and repainted properly or just do it myself with some sandpaper and a can of paint (not literally but i'm sure you get the idea).

Anyone know of a good reputable place to go and get'r done? or at least get a price on it. Any rough ideas on costs to get someone to do it?

I would like to keep the car for another 3-4 years if i can stretch her that far so keeping her lookin nice would keep me pretty happy.

Thanks in advance!

Pics might be good ... but based on your description, and if the paint is otherwise in good shape, this sounds like something you could / should do yourself.

I'm from Mississauga, I live out in Guelph though during the school year so it doesn't matter too much as to where a place would be.

Also, I will get pics up soon, no point in taking pics when the car is filthy, haha.
