I had mine MAACO'd last fall. I don't have visions of concours and was willing to settle for a 20-20 paint job. I spent about $1,000 for their top-of-the-line job and got a reasonably good job. It t

Depends on what you plan to do with the car. I don't know what the original poster's MG goals are. In my case I can't imagine spending $5k for paint that's gonna get dinged up by cones. -Keith Wheele

Define pin holes? Were they in the surface before you put the topcoat on, or did they appear in the topcoat? Generally you fill the pinholes with glaze (cheapest but slow) or thick primer and sanding
