Some of you may and may not know me. Only NTEC guy without an Evo.
This is my car as it sat a few weeks ago before I stripped it of majority of the aftermarket products.



I am looking to give it a make over, starting with the body. I have a few body parts coming in from Japan (used), so they are different colors. Does anyone have a good connection when it comes to paint? How much would it cost to get these parts painted? I would need the following parts painted (as seen in the photos below):

Front Bumper
Front Bumper Lip
Side Skirts
Rear Bumper
Rear Skirts
Trunk Lid
Trunk Spoiler








Also, I am looking to ditch my Enkei EVO6 rims (seen in pcture above) for Enkei RPF1s. I'd like peoples opinions, should I go with the RPF1 in Silver, or should I go with the RPF1 in SBC? These would be 17" wheels btw.








Questions to Address:
Do we have any hook ups on paint?
How much would it cost me to get the list of body parts painted?
Anyone had experiences with Maaco?
New rims: RPF1 Silver or RPF! Chrome?




Thanks In Advance Guys!

 

maaco hell no , i got a hook up ill pm you

 

Thanks for the speedy response red_evo8! Others welcome.

 

Talk to Tim he is a member of NTEC and does paint and body work. Or I really like MasterEuropa in Fort Worth. They have done quite a few project cars for me and are always perfect. I have never had to take a car back to get the color rematched. They did my previous E46 M3 including pulled fenders and a custom CSL trunk lid. Not to mention all the other work they did to it. They are great but they aren't the cheapest for sure. This is one part of your car I wouldn't cheap out on for sure!!

 

PM or email or even call me. I can repaint the parts you need.

I have the RPF1 in silver but SBC looks nice as well. (don't come in 9.5's in SBC I was told)

 

PM Sent

I am pretty set on SBC, but am trying to find someone to talk me out of them because the Silver is cheaper. LOL Good for me, I can't even fit 9.5s, I am looking into the 7s...
