Love it!

mrbond · 07-27-2009, 12:35 PM

I'm getting mine back tomorrow. Will be mounting it on Thursday morning!

StefanVVTi · 07-29-2009, 01:33 PM

Weight...weight? :D

mrbond · 07-29-2009, 01:46 PM

^ it doesn't weigh much at all. Probably 6 pounds.

cali yaris · 07-29-2009, 01:58 PM

stefan means a shipped weight

doing that now

mrbond · 08-03-2009, 09:32 PM

Fiiiiiinally got it back from the painter. He didn't do a great job at all, but you can't see the imperfections easily. I'm very very happy with the end result - great job TK!

Thanks for the pics! Glad you liked the results.

How much does a paint job on them run?

*tk-421* · 08-04-2009, 03:21 PM

It might be a bit expensive to get it done at a shop (I'm thinking it may even be more expensive that the wing itself). I really think you guys should go DIY on this one unless you really don't trust yourselves.

It's more along the lines of "I don't own equipment or the space to paint a spoiler for a car." Living in a city will do that.

cali yaris · 08-04-2009, 03:36 PM

my favorite local shop will do ones for me at about $100-150 for prep and paint.

I was wondering if you would shipped this baby painted. I have the gray 2007 version, I think they call it Meteorite Metallic?

I got a quote from a body shop around the corner for $300-350, that's insane, twice as much as the spoiler itself.

What say you? Would that work without actually having my car there to match the paint exactly?

KCALB SIRAY · 08-04-2009, 03:59 PM

Several companies will put together rattle cans with color matched paint. When I say color matched, I mean really color matched with the correct paint codes. It's small enough of a piece that you shouldn't notice a huge vairiation paint wise, so I'd spend the $19.00 and have a can made, and DIY. Ebay has a few companies that will get it done for you. Several of our members have used this method to spary their emblems, lip kits, minor repairs etc.

^^ correct. Some members have had great success with AutomotiveTouchUp.com for example
