New Do Luck CF duckbill trunk! Paint shop question

Hello fellow Evo buddies,

I just purchased a CF DoLuck duckbill trunk for my X from Bulletproof Automotive. I'm trying to get it painted but have like the duckbill part left as CF.

Which paint shops do you guys recommend? I searched around and found that Bel-Kirk with Tyler? is a good choice.

Thanks guys!

But you're getting a FQ400 bumper!! They are mean looking.

I'm trying to save and get a Varis front bumper/Varis widebody! but that will be in the distant future when cars can fly..

Thank you guys!

Picked it up the other day, and man, there was a lot of bubble wrap.

Took it to Bel-Kirk right after to get it painted. Took us awhile to get it unwrapped. Beautiful piece of work. Kind of did not want to get it painted because it was so nice! lol

There was a small little knick on the edge, but it won't matter because it's getting painted. It should be done by tomorrow, so pictures will be posted later.

Can't wait!

Thank you BPauto once again!
