Reasonable Price for Paint

I called Maaco to get a quote on painting a rear lip kit like the one that evosoul has for Rally Red and I was quoted $500 - which I find pretty pricey for this piece. So if anyone can refer me to a body shop painter for a much much much more reasonable price to paint this rear lip kit for around $100-200??? Please and thank you.

just remember you get what you pay for most of the time when it comes to paint. but 500 is high. $300 is what I would expect with prep and paint.

My dad owns a collision repair facility. That being said, I know that paint is expensive, so is labor. I also know that you should not get your car painted at Maaco. They do chop jobs from what I hear. Customers have come in our shop with paint jobs that blew off when they washed there cars. I dont mean to rag on anyone but I dont want someone to get ripped either.

Autotrin at Mccowan and eglinton. He quoted me $300 and change to get the whole rear bumper redone including removal complete strip, prime, paint and reinstall. so for a lip he should be less. My buddy took his eclipse there and got his full body kit installed and painted for $800. If interested his name is Jimmy.
