Painting A-Spec Body Kit

I own an 06 NBP TL w/ A-Spec body kit, I hate the color it is, i want to blacken out my car basically, im not intrested in doing the front grill.... i think thats stupid, but I want to paint my A-SPEC Body kit NBP color so it blends in with it. Now, has anyone painted it? I also have paint and a painter that will do it Dark Silver Metallic which would look very good also, please let me know if anyone else had this idea? does the a-spec body kit come off by itself? or do u g2 take off the whole bumper? If I wanted to obtain Nighthawk Black Pearl paint, would i have to go to the dealership and get it?

sheesh

Why is your A-Spec body kit NOT the same NBP as your car? What would you paint it, Silver?? Horrible......

The front and sides will come off without the bumper, but the rear is drilled into the rear bumper so the whole bumper comes off.....

Why Why Why Why Why would you paint it a different color???

where did you buy your knock-off???

oh.. and am I supposed to be concerned/intimidated/worried/upset that some kid half my age (on a forum nontheless) used a naughty word at me? Please, grow up, then come talk to me when you are a man that can be respected.

It is a knock-off non-oem kick that I think was on Ebay.... I am pretty sure the tealish is the primer...

No you didn't. Or you were at the Hyundai dealership....

The A-Spec kits come FACTORY PAINTED from, of all places, the factory. If yours came in a tealish silver, then you have some very serious issues.

As you are the ONLY person out of several hundred to order the A-Spec kit in the Teal/Silver color combo (are they calling that Teaver Pearl now?) I suggest you figure out what the deal is asap.... If it did in fact (I can't believe I am even saying this) come that color then the dealer who ordered & installed it should paint the damn thing free of charge...

Wait. Do you mean the gray portion on the A-Spec front/rear lip? Is this what you want to paint (and what you are calling "tealish silverish")?

If not, is the whole kit teal/silver? If so, whose car did you post up in the thread jmbnova found?

I'm not usually this confused...but this thread takes the cake.

By the way, don't paint it on your own. Please. Please.
