Can you please offer a painting option! Im sure that there are a lot of people willing to pay good money to have it shipped fully painted.
I know in your last post you said "And I can't provide a paint option (had too many problems in the past) So I apologize for that." What kind of problems did you have?
No paint, LOL! Sorry, the problems will be bad. Broken items will need re-paint. Scratches and nicks will get complaints. Color match problems will kill the mood. And returns will be a must. Overall it is a brain hurt.

Well I guess that is fair enough. Does anyone have any ideas, for a novice, on how and where to get this painted cheaply. I really like the look of the spoiler and I think it is the perfect design and compliments the back end nicely. Is painting it yourself that hard to do??????

bring it to a body shop and have them color matched to your car...unless you got all the fancy equipment at home you shouldn't even try it...i hope you weren't thinking of buying a few cans of spray paint and go at it by yourself.

lol. trust me, getting it done professionally will save you alot of work. and honestly, alot of fiberglass stuff that you get still needs a little work, meaning body shop will make the edges better, even out everything and then paint it. so don't do it yourself just to save money. trust me, you'll regret it.

if you're in socal, hit me up, i'll send you to my bodyshop, they will take care of you.

What is everyone paying to have it color matched to there car?? Are you paying to have it attached too, or are you doing that part yourself?????

OK OK, Chris left me a message about when it's shipping out. YAY! I'm not so much worried, i'm just anxious to get it. It will be a nice addition to my little sponsorship I just got. hehe.

Spoilers should cost between $85-$150 for paint in CA. This spoiler is easy and flat so the shop should have no problems.

Thanks for answering Viniati^^^^. Anyone else have any actual prices that they paid, for comparison sake??
Also, are you guys paying to have it put on too, or are you just doing that part yourself. It cant be that hard to stick on is it?
