Default How much to get Window Louvers Painted to match?

So I just bought some Roush window louvers for about $140 Shipped! Now around how much will it cost to have them painted to match?

Most places were telling me around $100 when I was looking at the Silverhorse racing ones, so I'd say in that ballpark

See this is the reason I would go with Wheelskin. They come painted and they usually give discounts to Mustang Forum members.

I wanted Roush no matter what. And only $100 more for paint is totaly fine, it means only $240 total. Roush pre painted louvers are like $350 so I'm saving over $100. The pre painted louvers such as Wheelskin are only painted on the front side, not the back side, and I like knowing it'll all be painted perfectly. Plus I'll be doing the mirrors and chin spoiler at the same time so the price will be even less for paint. [8D]

I was gonna say, if you want other things painted now is the time to get it done while they have the color mixed.

heck yes then definitely go with the roush. they do look friggin sweet. when you look at it like thatyou do save quite a bit of money. when you take them to a body shop to get them painted just make sure they have a good rep. i had my spoiler painted by this shop that has been in my home town for years. ya they did a terrible job they had to re0do it twice cuz they let the janitor spray it im pretty sure.

I bought the roush spoiler and roush louvers for around 300-400 Dont remember how much but went to GAS-Galpin Auto Sports and got them color matched an installed for 500. I know it a lil bit over priced but it was worth it cuz they deal with mustangs every day and they are a company to trust.
