Ok. So everyone who knows me, knows my fiancee Paul has a yellow Cobalt SS. His car has the stupid ugly wing on the back that we’ve agreed NEEDS TO GO ASAP. I swear it screams LOOK AT ME!

So with that being said here’s the question

Does anyone know anyone that can paint his trunk after we take the stupid thing off? He keeps saying “make sure you write GOOD PAINTERS” LOL Like a professional but willing to do it on the side or in the off hours to make some extra cash?

He’s gotta plug up the holes where the bolts are now but we have plans for that in the works right now.

Also he would like suggestions for people/places that have done a GREAT job in the past! THANKS!!

:hug

Let the shop or whoever paints it fill the holes. It will look much better than an amateur doing it.

yeah it’s yellow and you’re right it won’t lower it by much… but it will blend in better with the other traffic!

Thanks for your opinion… as obvious as it was… :hug
