i need someone to paint a lip and side skirts
 

does anyone know someone who can paint my front lip and side skirts to match my paint? its a stock honda element color tangerine orange. couple places said 200 but i dont have that. let me no whats good

You would be amazed at how good spray paint is getting. Wet sand, prime, paint, clear.

yea i would agree if u dont have the $200 to spend to get it professionally done spray paint isnt a bad idea if u do it correctly. i know a couple people who painted their side skirts with spray paint and u cant tell the difference

i can do it if you get the paint

one of the big problems im having is finding the paint

go to a shop that supplys body shops with paint and stuff like that, they can mix you a half quart of you color (all youll need) 2 can of the 1k clear and your good to go

def man head to a sherwin williams, bodymaster places like that...and its usually not too much for that amount of paint and clear..all in the prep work!

my buddys family owns flanerys. they supply most shops around here. 125 a quart. not including reducer and all that stuff that i no nothing about.

i have reducer here, all ud need is the half quart or even a pint would do and the clear

YR563M is the paint code

if you get the paint ill paint the stuff free

5 stars auto did my shirts for like 150 including repair

MACCO does good work if you prep yourself and they are cheap.

you do know that a half quart = a pint right? lol

forget about spray painting it or taking it to Maaco, that's ghetto. OP, you have a PM.

yes i know i wasnt giving it full thought then

$200 is a decent price. Tangerine Orange Metallic is also the color of my car; it's pretty expensive paint. Let me check and see if I have any leftover, if I do, it's yours.

i have sti splitters and fog lights ans stuff to paint. i went to an auto paint shop on baltimore pike. they wanted 200 just for the a quart worth of paint. Subaru watned 150 to paint them. i went on ebay and bought paint in a spay can (2cans shipped for 40). Hopefully i will be painting tomorrow and it will match my car

my guy painted my side skirts, rear apron, and spoiler for $175. all i did was drop them off. they came out matched perfectly!! o and it was metallic paint fairly rare as well lol. so if your up my way and need some paint done. hit me up before it gets too cold.

it won't match or look good or last very long, you can be sure of that. from a spray can = garbage.

people expect paint work to be cheap just because they see paint in cans on the shelf at an auto parts store and they figure they can spend $15 and still make it look good. The simple fact is that quality paint work takes time and a certain skill set. if you don't have either, pay someone a reasonable amount of money to practice their trade and do it right. OR... drive around with spray painted exterior parts and look like an idiot. lol


sorry, not an attack on anyone in particular, just a small rant. doing this stuff for a living and seeing certain posts just makes me do this :mad: haha.
