Painting your 190E

I'm in the Philadelphia area, and I was wondering if anyone out there can recommend a place where I can have my 190E painted with a candy coat? Or like a midnight blue? Someplace reliable that doesn't make mistakes....

Thanks
:v

If you want a Kandy paint.Make sure you check out the painter's work,it's not an easy paint to shoot( I think it's a 5 stage paint).Also have them take the car down to the bare metal.



Here is my old car,It was painted a Kandy with all the works.I knew the people and got a deal.Cost about $5000.00 That's in the Bay Area

let me know too

I'm in the Philly/Princeton area and would love to know what you find out. I'd like to get a stock coat of my Brilliant Silver and go uniform or on the bumpers.
