Why........are you starting your own flame? Cost to paint one of those "stick on" roof spoilers might cost between $30 - $50 depending on the body shop.

Seriously doubt you'll find a shop that does it for that. The paint itself costs more than that. You're probably looking at ATLEAST $100. Unless they're using a cheaper paint that is just "similar" to your actual color.

You need to clean that area where the tape needs to stick with rubbing alcohol before reinstalling it with 3M double sided adhesive.
