I think we should go to Sacramento so that we can get a cheaper price. Besides it would be a fun drive. I am up for going to Sac!!!!!

pls add Black X42 AC11342 "Tarmac Black" for my gf's evo.

have we also confirmed it's $75-$95 for the entire car or if it'll be cheaper for just the front bumper/hood/fenders?

also, what kind of prep do we need to do?

1 more q

is this a respray or just filling in the rock chips. the first post mentions a spray but from what i recall from sacs2kdays, it was a full on respray.
Depending on the amount of work that needs to go into the bumper, it could be just a spot touch up or it could be an entire bumper respray.

According to them, most cars should just be a spot touch up.

Yes, it will hold if you put a porter cable to it. The paint and filling should dry within a few days. Don't purposely single it out to test it though!

Prices are now back to $75-95 for touch up.

A full bumper respray would cost ~$150 (includes touch up).

We are almost ready for Saturday. Only thing left is to get a location. If we wanted them to drive to us, the price per car would go up. I suggested $5-$10 per car depending on how far we'd have them drive but he evaded the question. I suggested several locations:

1. Pleasanton/Dublin
2. Walnut Creek
3. Benicia
4. Fairfield
5. Sacramento (their shop)

It all depends where we can find a place to do this and how far you all are willing to drive. They suggested a parking lot of a wherehouse or a residential area where we get permission of the residents.

So before I go out scouting, does anyone have any suggestions?

i'd do pleasanton or walnut creek. honestly have no clue where benecia and fairfield are ...which probably means if they're held there, the gf and i may opt to just not do it. sac is definitely out for me...way too far for a job like this.

benicia and fairfield are about 30 minutes south of sac (45 minutes to an hour north of santa clara)

although it took me 3 hours the other night, they were testing the new bay bridge and closed down 3 lanes on the highway

We did a dent day at Omega Tintwerks (Vincent's place?) a few months back. That was a pretty good place.

Just off of 580 and Santa Rita Rd in Pleasanton. It is about 90 miles from Sacto though.

Walnut Creek might be easier for Aero Colours, but finding a place that won't get butthurt for us using it would be difficult. WAY too many rich snobs...
