Hey did that shop in Brooklyn paint that value Spoiler? I cant really tell that well in the pics but it looks awesome. How did the paint job come out, and how much did your guy charge you for it? So that way I can get a basic idea on my front grill when it arrives, should I take it to your guy.

Yes my guy in South Brooklyn did it for me. The paint looks INCREDIBLE. It makes the rest of the car look bad. lol. Paint cost is about $400. There are 2 bad things about this guy, #1 he is the most expensive I've ever seen, #2 he is very busy so dont expect 2-3 day service. It took a week and a half to get it done and he installed it in a few hours. When I say he is the best I've ever seen, take my word for it. I've seen alot of paint jobs and nothing compares. I know another really good guy in Westchester whos a little cheaper but he's even slower. If you want to see the paint in person I'll meet up with you one day to prove my point. Let me know if you want to meet up.

$75? How big is the spoiler and what kind of paint did they use? Factory paint is like $60 a can alone. You didnt go to Maaco right? I know $400 is absurd but $75 sounds weird.

Yo 96TL,
When I get my Grill from Value I may take you up on that offer. I would love to see what it looks like. I had the front end of my car resprayed previously due to an accident my car was in. I loaned it to my mom and she kinda went into a Mercedes SUV, but I had Rallye in Roslyn do all the body work and paint and they did a very good job, looks like factory. But, I am definitely intrested in seeing your car and possibly taking my car to your guy cause I used to have my own body shop guy until he retired and moved to FL. He was in Ozone Park, Liberty Auto Body man I miss Skip. Good Guy with reasonable prices and quality work. He would even let me pay him in installments when I had my "Z" redone.

What I would like to do is have the body shop paint my Grill and Chin Spoiler when I get it, and also do some custom work to my rear bumper to accomodate the dual exhaust and then I am set. So I figure to have this work done in the spring and Kill all three birds with one stone.
