It's not the paint that's expensive...it's getting the piece to fit well. You gotta cut (or remove) the stock re-bar, sand, shave, wet sand, and prep the piece for it's installed. I've seen it cost as much as $800 to be done RIGHT - I mean show quality work for a piece requiring considerable work to make fit properly. On the flipside, I know guys who'll swear they can do it for $200 painted all day long - but I wouldn't even drive by their shop lol

I had my feed front bumper painted VR for $300, and it was a perfect match. No problems to this day at all with the paint. I did all the other work though to fit it and get everything right. The bigger issue is having patience and time....

Darkness....swing by Dan @ Mr Spoiler, and he'll give you a quote on the spot. I don't remember how much it was, but a few locals have had it done at his shop. He's the only shop I'd recommend to work on the FD
