The only labor I performed was the removal of the parts.

I paid $200 to have everything painted...including tax.

Thanks for the compliments guys/gals

can you just paint that stuff? or did you have to get special plastic ones? Mines that black hard plastic stuff that comes stock with the car. Can i just get that part painted???

i really like how your car looks painted like that. Very smooth.

All the parts were the stock parts. The guy at the body shop said he used a new epoxy primer that bonds to the surface of the textured plastic better than normal primer. After that, he shot it with the Frost White paint.

Looks good, but you need a spoiler too.

I think the stock spoiler is nice. I used to like the WW 3 piece unitl FF came out.
