I've dealt with Maaco before. I personally dont recommend them. In my area, they didnt follow my instructions for certain things to be painted and they got paint on alot of crap, like my steering wheel and shifter and dash. A friend of mine wanted his rear middle tail peice painted and they didnt bother to find the correct paint and just found some green that matched okay and didnt even want to refund him his money. So you may not even end up liking the color. My white civic wasn't matched to code either, which i could tell clearly, but it would be un-noticable to anyone else. Plus, it seems as if they didn't mask off areas well and they had to sand my head lights and they turned to crap, but I sold that car anyway and it was only a $750 paint job. I wouldnt recommend them unless you (like me) are going to sell the car. But then again it was in my area (Northern VA).

make it into a gst front bumper ! buy some grey primer in a spray can from pepboys or auto zone, and take off the top part by the lil crease in the front. Making a grey lip like on a 95-96 GST
