Anyone know a place in or around Albany that will paint a wing for cheap? My RSX’s ass is looking awfully plain.

My car is pearl white, 2 stage =/. I’ve heard horrible things about maaco, so I’m kinda hesitant. I was just wondering if there was a place that would do it for under $200.

If someone can do it I’d be willing to pay them. If its a custom job then I might consider just getting the sides of a carbon fiber wing painted instead evo style.

What Adam said. Bring them a paint chip and they can even color match the wear on your factory paint

Yup. When I had my audi i had bought a lip for it and bought the factory color in the one stage stuff. It didn’t match at all so i went back and the dude who worked there told me to bring in a chip of paint from the car and he could try to get as close to a match of that as he could. he did a real good job

Well seeing as I dont think my car will get painted this year like I had hoped…

Maybe I can salvage the front bumper hood from its fading then for now…

I was just going to satin black the hood for now but ehh that works
