Beautiful! The look of a brand new coach for the price of a paint job.

Cost??

I "saved" about $100,000!! (in not trading in and buying a new coach...)

The cost to do the work was between $10-20K I had a lot of things done, so I know how much people want to know how much it cost - but due to special circumstances I can't share the actual cost.

A couple of questions.......

What year is your coach?

Did you get the 3M film on the front to protect the paint?

Sure looks nice'n new now.

The coach is a 2002 Itasca Horizon 39QD

I thought about and read a lot about the 3M front mask and decided to pass... It was something like $1000 for the 3M cover!

Looks absolutely outstanding. We got our's painted last year and I still can't believe how good it looks.

Did CDI do the paint job for Winne? When I had a VIP factory tour last fall, I never did see paint booth/booths for coaches. They told me CDI did all their full body paint work....only touch up work was done at the Winne factory.

Really looks great. I know you said you dropped it off in February and just picked it up, but how long did it take to actually do the work? Also, are all the rubber seals and gaskets replaced when they do a paint job?

Now that's a great looking paint job. You know we are expecting the toad to get a matching scheme! Congratulations and many scratch free miles!
