I am having my sides and back painted on Monday shop said $350 I talked 'em down to $300. I have the aero bumper in the front.

There are others who have done this, and you will get replies or search because I have spoken to other people about this before on the forum.

make sure they use flex agent in the paint and can assure you that it won't peel off.

Post pics when you are done b.sash

Listen guys, depending on where you take the car, some places will insist they have to remove all of the pieces to paint them correctly and then reinstall them on the car. This will add hours to labor and can drastically change the price. I went to a few places before finding a really good shop that would paint them on the car for $300.
