Yeah. that's what I was thinking. Any ideas on what i should be paying for them to simply spray primer, paint, clear and do all the paint sanding and buffing and fix those chips?

^^well w/o jacking thread....what i usually do whenever im getting any kind of work done is research example: how much paint,supplies etc will cost.....then when you go to the paint/body guy and he gives a ridiculous figure you can say "well i priced the parts and they will cost x amount, so how much are you charging for labor"....that will usually knock them back into if u bring your own stuff i can do it for cheap lol....
back to the paint!!!! |

well i know from last year it cost me $134 to paint a bumper, side skirts, rear lip, roof wing and fender cause I bought the supplies myself. That includes paint, primer, clear, sand paper, tape and materials to turn the garage i had at the time into a paint booth.

Either the image was tampered with or the quality is crap, because you can see aroudn light reflections and corners the image is blurry. slightly disformed..meaning there was tampering with the original photo..thats what i mean with photoshop..not that someone drew it in photoshop!

Ugh... It's all up to personal taste and/or rim choice/color and style desired.

I agree with sb253's choice in color. http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=173624 just looks good on a 240.

It is hard to ask an opinion on paint because everybody has a different taste. In the end its all on what you want and what you think is hot. I am in love with steel grey metallic or seal grey metallic. There isn't much difference in the two if any but I have noticed some paint shops call it one or the other. It's a nice dark grey but when sunlight hits it , you see a nice hint of silver.....any ways sexy ass color in my opinion.
