That's one pretty looking coach, Gary. They sure did a great job. I'll bet you sure missed it while it was in the shop, so get out & start enjoying it.

Gary The coach looks good, I am excited to see the finished product.

I just dropped off my 02 Horizon 39QD in a paint shop in MI just north of Elkhart, IN...3 colors and your own design for 250.00 a foot using Dupont paint with 3 coats of clear...One of the colors I chose was Harley Davidson black metallic at 570.00 a gallon and the price to paint the coach is $10,000...The shop has a good reputation with plenty of references...About 3 to 4 weeks to complete..I too have the same small cracks in the Filon as Gary..Can't wait to get it back..

How exciting, Gary. Your color scheme sounds great. I'll sure keep checking back for updated pics.

Great Gary,,now you will have a timeless coach..Good Luck jimmy

Since we have a 2002 Journey DL 39 ft we are very interested in the process you are going thru. Thanks for the blog and please keep the info updated. DId they give you a time frame from start to finish?
Thanks

Gary, Assuming they do a good job (and I know they will) you will be very happy with your new paint job vs. a new coach. $11-12K is a lot cheaper investment than $100K+ for the new coach (not to mention those new messy 2010 EPA regs....).

I spoke with the owners of the 2001 Journey who just had theirs done in full body paint in the body shop behind me. They were very happy with their decision, and the paint job turned out excellent.

Keep us posted.

Gary,

I will be following your Blog. Keep it coming!

Don't let them touch that iRV2 decal either

Man...you got a deal, price wise I mean. I owned a body shop in another lifetime and I don't see any way I could have come close to the $11,000. I think you made a wise decision getting it painted closer to home if for no other reason if you should have any warranty issues. Looking forward to seeing the progress. Thanks for sharing.
