If you do most of the prep work yourself a Maaco paint job is decent. Of course I wouldn't bring my e92 there, but I took my e30 to Maaco since the clearcoat was peeling. My e30 is white, so I had it repainted the same color. I'm sure if I got it painted black, you could see the quality of a Maaco paint job, but with white it's easier to hide.
Another thing is one Maaco is not the same as another one, so try to do some research of the different Maaco's in your area. The quality of the work will differ from what I hear. They had to do a little extra sanding on mine plus they charged me a little more since I had the bumpers off so I paid about $500 out the door for the second level paint job (presidential)? Normal price was 399 and they had a special going on for 299.
I recommend taking your tailights, emblems, headlights, and other moldings/trim off before you take it to them.
