Painting Costs
Just out of curiousity...
What does it usually cost to get a reputable shop to paint things like a front lip....a new spoiler....side skirts....?
I was thinking about getting something...but the painting costs scare me.

I did that based on what I'd charge. From the other responses it seems like I'm on par with the other areas. I think you may have gotten confused on my skirt price. The way I said it it looks like I mean $175-225 for both sides. I actually meant that per skirt.

I've seen a guy on here show one DB that was a tri coat. The DB, CS, and SS I've sprayed were all just BC/CC.

880 for a lip kit tho.. (i paid 950 for my body kit with paint/install and i get complements every day)
there is a line.
400 for a lip kit can get you a really really nice paint match with lifetime warranty.

Man you guys have wicked CHEAP pricing in the US for body shops.
Just to give you an idea. Im getting my new front bumper and skirts painted. $1500 is on the cheap side around here...
