I had my old 900 painted at Maaco for around $350, after I sanded down the old paint. It looked awesome after they painted it. Then I found out cheap paint jobs suck... I parked it under some trees a few months later, and the leaves fell onto the hood and sat there for a few days... after it rained. The leaves left a permanent pattern in the "paint." You just can't wash the paint. Sure, it will look great for a couple months, maybe if you wax it religiously it will even hold out for longer, but basically you get what you pay for.
