Custom Paint & Graphics in Kenner, LA

Custom paint and graphics for Kenner, prepared and sprayed by Big Easy Custom Cars.

Overview

Paint Work for Kenner Trucks and SUVs

Kenner is the first thing plenty of visitors see after the airport, and Rivertown puts vehicles on display every time there is an event. Paint that holds up under that attention is a preparation job.

Paint is mostly preparation. Panels come back to a sound surface, the color is matched and laid in a booth, and the clear coat is what keeps it looking new. Full respray, a color change, stripes or a graphics package: Kenner customers see the spray-out card before anything is committed.

Every custom paint job here starts the same way: we look at the vehicle, agree what it needs, and put a price and a timeline in writing before anything is touched. You get updates while it is with us and the final say on every part that goes on. Kenner customers book by phone or by sending photographs, and the shop is in New Orleans.

Tell us what the vehicle needs and we will come back with options, a timeline and a price. Contact Big Easy Custom Cars to book custom paint in Kenner.

What Our Customers Have To Say

I added a new audio system and custom lighting, and the setup is exactly what I was hoping for. Clean installation, no messy wires, and the sound quality is a huge upgrade. The lighting gives it that extra touch without being too flashy.

Kevin T. Audio · Custom Lighting

I brought my Camaro in for custom paint and graphics, and I couldn't stop smiling when I saw it finished. The color depth and detail in the design came out even better than I pictured. People ask me about it everywhere I go now. The team really nailed the vision.

Tyler B. Camaro · Paint & Graphics

I've worked with shops before, but this was my first time doing full custom paint work. The finish is smooth, deep, and consistent across every panel. You can tell they take pride in their craft.
