Default Lip paint job in SF?

Anyone know a place that will paint a front lip for cheap? I'm going to install it myself.

650 669 1097 His name is George and is located in Belmont off of the Ralston exit. Lat's my guy, painted my two tone and a bunch of other projects for 02. He is very fair. Good luck.

I called a bunch of places and ended up taking it to Rich's Auto Body on Potrero in SF. They are only charging me $50. I'll report back after I pick it up.

So I went this morning to pick it up (6 hour turnaround!) and the paint job looks fine but the lip has a dent in the top of it! Sigh...I ccouldn't see that when it was unpainted so now I gotta deal with getting a new one. They're going to try and heat it to fix it, but I don't think it will come out.

Anyway, the shop has been super nice so I recommend them. http://www.richsautobodysf.com/

It's OEM, the dent is like the size of a pinky pressed into the top of it. I'll have pics tomorrow when I pick it up.

The shop pretty much fixed it...they heated it and you can't really see it unless you're up close and know it was there. I installed it this weekend along with HIDs.
