so, i just recently bought an evo VII spoiler and i needed somewhere to get it painted, but i dont want to get ripped off, its already primed and ready to paint, how much should i expect to pay to have it painted?

 

HEy bro, i caled around before i was gonna buy one, and this auto racing store near by, charged me $100 for painting it, and $100 for installation, and i said "**** no", so i actually asked the dealership out of ALL places, and they gave me this guy who does their spoiler work, and he charged me $100 for BOTH installation and painting. couldn't hurt to ask the dealership's spoiler guy.

i wish i could find a price like that, i just need them to paint it, i can install it myself. All the auto body shops are trying to rip me off sayin it will cost 230 just to paint the damn thing.

 

and the dealership around here doesnt do their own body work, they send it elsewhere.

 

The local shop that does all my body shop is only charging me $100 to paint my spoiler and evo grill

 

i wonder if it is because of the oz yellow color

 

Metallic colors, Red and Yellow colors are all very expensive. All the other colors are cheaper. Red and Yellow are designed to be lead-free so they cost more to produce. I would say a price of $120 for painting and install would be reasonable (I do automotive painting as a hobby and to make some money on the side).

 

coo, thanx man! where do you live in so cali?
