In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] and its [[GTA IV Episodes|episodic packs]], '''[[Spray Shop|spray shops]]''' are found scattered all over [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]], functioning as both a vehicle repair shop as well as a location to clear the player's [[Wanted Level in GTA IV|wanted level]]. Unlike its primary predecessor, the [[Pay n' Spray]], spray shops now have distinct names, but are still referred to as "Pay n' Sprays" by the game's tooltip during "[[Easy Fare]]", as well as on the pause-menu map. | |||

'''Native American Engines''' is the only spray shop in the Broker/[[Dukes]] landmass. Located on Gibson Street, on the southern edge of [[Outlook]], [[Broker]], the spray shop is prominently marked by a massive overhead "Manco Real Estate" sign. The spray shop is prominently feature during "[[Easy Fare]]", when the player is automatically pursued by the police at a point and is required to evade the police. Because Native American Engines is the only spray shop that the player can safely use, the player may use the spray shop to respray their vehicle for free (only during the mission); should the player escape police pursuit via alternate means, however, the player is directed to simply head to Native American Engines to complete the mission. | '''Native American Engines''' is the only spray shop in the Broker/[[Dukes]] landmass.

'''Auto Cowboys''' is the second spray shop in Algonquin, being located further north on the northern end of Frankfort Avenue in [[Northwood]], directly in front of an elevated portion of the [[Algonquin Inner Line]]. Due to its location, the spray shop may not only be useful when one is in northern Algonquin, but also [[Bohan]] via the [[Northwood Heights Bridge]] (as Bohan has no spray shop; however, players who are under higher [[Wanted Level in GTA IV|wanted levels]] will have to overcome roadblocks set up on both ends of the bridge). The spray shop is also notable for mentioning "[[Pay 'n' Spray]]" as a byline, although the spray shop's actual name does not allude to it. The Auto Cowboys building is otherwise unremarkable. | '''Auto Cowboys''' is the second spray shop in Algonquin, being located further north on the northern end of Frankfort Avenue in [[Northwood]], directly in front of an elevated portion of the [[Algonquin Inner Line]].

In addition to being the only two spray shops in the Alderney area, the spray shops are the only ones to adopt "[[Pay n' Spray]]" into their name, and are the only spray shops in GTA IV to exist as a chain of two or more outlets. The chain's logo encompasses a graphic representation of a baseball cap-wearing "Axel", sometimes with a car axle (an apparent pun of Axel's name) driven through his head by the ears; the spray shops are also painted with an overall green color scheme. | In addition to being the only two spray shops in the Alderney area, the spray shops are the only ones to adopt "[[Pay n' Spray]]" into their name, and are the only spray shops in GTA IV to exist as a chain of two or more outlets.
