I'm looking to paint a wing and front lip. I was wondering where might be a good place to go and an approx. cost. I have a guy on base who does good work that will do it for $100 plus cost of paint ($60). I'm not sure if I'll beat that. Thanks.

 

That's a good deal. Not sure if u can beat that. I need hardtop and bumper painted and everyone wants 3-400. That's with my parts already preped for paint. I'm going to your guy. Lol

 

is your guy jt by chance?

 

a buddy of mine has a shop on the west side, I can find out how much he could paint the lip,wing,hardtop for you guys. but 100 to paint lip and wing is pretty cheap. lmk if you guys want me to find out.

 

Yes. If you could check on hardtop and front bumper for me. Thanks.

 

Yes, I believe its JT.

 

200-300 depends on if the parts have damage.

 

You also have to consider the fact that a bumper and hard top are much larger than a front lip and spoiler. The average asking price for a lip and spoiler is going to be $200 and up. So that guy asking for $160 is probably the best deal you will find. But just because it's a good deal, doesn't mean you will be satisfied with the outcome.

 

Definately agree. However, I've seen this guy's work, and it is definately at least satisfactory. A few years back I had a bumper painted at MAACO. Worst $175 I spent. No prep work and the clearcoat was peeling after about a week or two. I went back to complain and show the place what was going on. They said they'd redo it for half what I paid the first time! I never went back and eventually sold that car with a diseased looking bumper and got the S. Thanks for the replies guys.

 

HAHA! Yea. . .the place I bought my car from had a MAACO job on the front bumper. It's starting to peel. Looks like my car has a flesh eating disease. That's why they only have a one year warranty there. They use crappy paint. It's a one stage (clear coat within the color) instead of a two stage where they spray color and then clear over it. That's why it looked so bad. As long as your guy uses a two stage, I'm sure it will look fine.
