few questions i need to ask...
alright, i have a few questions to ask.. first off, wut would you ppoL think about the idea of putting a rmr type 2 lip alongside the kaminari rear and side skirts? secondly, where is the cheapest place to buy the kaminari skirts other than nopionline.com? coz i looked in the evom marketplace and buying the side and rear skirts separately from kaminari costs 350+ each, whereas buying it from nopionline was only 270 and some change each. thirdly, if i were to get this somewhat of a 'lip kit', how much do you think it would be to color match on a thunder gray? [ or could i just do it myself with 10 cans of rustoleum metallic black and clearcoat?
] and lastly, what would you guys think about just color matching that uglyass orange reflector instead of replacing it with a clear one? sorry for all the questions..

Definitely don't go with the rustoleum way, it's won't look right. GuruDel found a spray paint that is very close to T-gray, but I don't think it should be used on anything larger than eyebrows. Figure a paint shop would do them for $300, you could do it yourself for about $200 ($75 for paint and clearcoat, $100 or so for the sprayer).
Have it painted professionally b/c its very hard to prep urethane for paint and then get no runs around the louvers. I had mine painted by caliber collision centers for free But they said they would charge like $50 to paint it.
As far as the reflectors, I think if you color matched them it would look cheap. Just like how some guys paint over the plastic trim on their trucks instead of shaving it off...looks very half-assed. The clear reflectors are a much better choice.
thanks for the replies so far guys. i definitely wont do it myself now.. hehe. but i still wanna know what you guys think about the custom 'lip kit' i plan on putting on the car? will it look good? or bad? IMO, it'll look pretty good coz i want the rear skirt to sit lower than the stock oz ones. and personally, i like the kaminari side skirts. so any input will help. and as far as pricing goes, anyone know where i could buy the parts cheaper than nopionline?
