Nice! I've wanted to do that for a while but my car is black and I don't think it will be that noticable. What color is your car and how much did it cost?

my car is that white pearl color. and the painted side skirts make the car look lower. it looks real nice. it cost me 450 bucks but he also painted the front bumper cause that was all scratched up. parking blocks suck. im so happy its like i got a new car.

How did you get the side skirts painted? You just asked the guy to paint the side skirts? I didn't know you could do that cause I thought paint wouldn't go on the plastic like surface good enough...

I was offered by a relative, who runs a bodyshop, to get those sideskirts painted. Yet, I still haven't gotten anytime to do that.
Well, you can remove the sideskirts out by yourself. It's not very difficult to do. Then you let the people at the bodyshop paint them. Or you can just take your car there, and they will just do everything. They would perhaps charge you more for removing them. And if you know how to take them out, you would know how to put them back - So that would save you some money there.

The people at the bodyshop would use some kind of paint for plastic. Hope that answered your question. How much would they usually charge you? I'll say around $100-120 - Wouldn't be more than that.
