Default Got my spoiler painted!!!

This place did an awesome job! I am highly ecstatic over their work! I also got the rear 1/4 panels welded and painted, due to the factory drilling 3 holes on each side for the RS spoiler. I know I still need the area under the doors painted, but for now, this will definitely do!!!

Looks really nice.

Just a friendly suggestion.. IMHO I would have the mirrors painted as well. Your car is really looking nice bro!

Whats up with the rear panel? No camaro name in it.. Did you cover it up and sand it flat or did you get that panel from somewhere like that?

Besides those few compaints.. i like it ALOT.

Keep up the good work.

Remember... that was constructive criticism not DESTRUCTIVE.

I actually filled it in with a good body filler and primer, sanded it a million times until it was smooth, and painted it. When I get the sides painted, I will probably also have that painted. Thanks for the compliments and/or complaints!

Who did the work? How come you still have the Euro plate on the car, is that legal here?

Looks MUCH better painted

Thanks guys, and Tony, Hugo's body shop off of Louetta did it. I took my wife's car there to get some work done, and I was so impressed by their work I decided to let them do mine. If you need the number, let me know. No this plate is not legal, but I wanted to wait until I got the car paid off to register it, so I could have the title in hand. I did that last month, so I'm probably going there next week.

It was $900 to get the work done, and it will be another $600 to have the rear panel and under the doors painted.

HAHA, not hardly. I just preferred to have it black, rather than the primer yellow color it came in.

I actually liked it better flat black, I thought it looked cool with your flat black rear panel.

Thanks for your opinion, but that was way too much flat black for me. I'm actually going to get the panel painted gloss black.

I want to keep it black, but I want to have it painted gloss black. Plus, I spent way too much time filling it in and smoothing it to just trade someone.
