Custom Stripes- Paint Shop?

Anyone know of a really good paint shop in the San Antonio area? I wanted to get my stripes painted on and was looking to find a nice custom color plus an estimate.

I hear Jacks Paint and Body is good.

I have no idea on their contact info, though. Ask Chris (Atti2de)

Call Bob or Chris @ Custom Coach Works 210-341-2222

They did a great job on my car, just stop by the shop at 6 Burwood Lane (off Blanco) and tell them what you want to do and they can give you an estimate.

Gah!!! This might have to wait awhile. So fare the first estimate was $1400.00!!! That's a lot for some stripes I already have.

That's about right. My paint shop wants $1500.

Well, he wants 175 a panel, which isn't bad at all. I would have 8 panels however with my type of stripe, which makes the price jump like crazy. Just regular SS stripes would only be like $350.00.

Right, so....plans may have changed a little. Now I'm thinking I'll do away with my stripes and go with this. Name:  images.jpg

Paint it in black with read flakes inside. http://www.titantalk.com/forums/atta...s-177fb947.jpg

The pic of the paint is taken on an overcast day, the really black spots are just reflections.
This way has a lot fewer panels to work on.

Yes, you must pay to play. 1400 sounds right

I took mine to Wommack Chevrolet in Castroville. Cost was $1200 for custom ghost stripes. While they did a great job painting them...watch out for the guy that buffs. I had to take it back twice. In the end, they turned out pretty damn good. The guy that buffed my car has moved on.

So then I suppose you don't have to watch out for the guy that buffs anymore, eh?

Haha, burn.

I gotta say though, his ghost stripes look awesome. If I were ever to get some paint work done I'd definitely take it down to Castroville.
